Election watch: Bipartisan teams to monitor Stark County ballot drop box
CANTON ? Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose is encouraging supervision at absentee ballot drop boxes.
Here's what's expected in Stark County as the Nov. 5 election approaches.
Under Ohio law, voters can cast their ballots early by mail by requesting an absentee ballot. Absentee voters also have the option to drop off their absentee ballot at a drop box, typically located outside the county board of elections office.
This may be a good option if it is too late for the ballot to be returned in the mail, since mail ballots must be postmarked by the day before Election Day and received no later than four days after the election. An absentee ballot can be returned via the drop box up until polls close on Election Day.
