Remember Ohio: (Vote 2 Times or pay an 'amigo' to vote for you) ID is Required - But Not Photo ID

Remember: You *DO NOT* need a photo ID to vote in Ohio

From [HERE] You DO need an ID to vote a regular ballot on election day, but it DOES NOT need to be a photo ID. Any of the following will work:

A current and valid photo identification card issued by the State of Ohio or the United States government; or
A military identification (“military ID”); or
An original or copy of a current utility bill; or
An original or copy of a current bank statement; or
An original or copy of a current government check; or
An original or copy of a current paycheck; or
An original or copy of a current other government document, other than a voter registration acknowledgement notification mailed by the board of elections, that shows the voter’s name and current address.

Important: Your Ohio driver’s license DOES NOT need to show your current address. As long as your ID has not expired and your current address is printed on the official poll list you can still vote a regular ballot.

VOTING PROVISIONALLY

DO NOT let anyone force you to vote provisionally simply because your Ohio driver’s license address is not current. As we mentioned above – as long as the address on the poll list is current YOU MAY VOTE A REGULAR BALLOT.

If you forget your ID they still must let you vote a provisional ballot, but it will not be counted on election day, so you want to avoid voting provisionally if at all possible. So bring ID!

The polls are open from 6:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m on Election Day (Tuesday).

DO NOT RESPOND TO RACIST WHITE PEOPLE BEING PROVOCATIVE

Put your game face on. Folks please expect racism from white people at the polls - if they are not racist be pleasantly surprised. Racist white people are the most provocative people on the planet, do not react to their conduct or statements by arguing or touching or doing anything that could lead to "greater confinement." Understand their great fear of losing control. Do not lose your cool under any circumstances [MORE]. Remain focused and calm to neutralize their racism.
