2. You are a US citizen
3. You will be a resident of Ohio for at least 30 days by November 4th
4. You are not currently convicted for a felony and behind bars
You must re-register if you have…
1. Moved and not registered at your new address
2. Legally changed your name
3. Not voted in the past four years
EARLY VOTING in Ohio starts September 30, and you can vote by mail from then until election day in Ohio, which falls on Tuesday, November 4th.
The last day to register in Ohio is Monday, October 6th.

Very scared
What assurances do we have that our vote actually counts?
So far, Cuyahoga County's Board of Elections has done nothing to convince me that they are making their best effort to get citizens registered and to keep the public informed of their voting options. I can cite my own experience. I had a promise that a BOE official would visit my work place by the end of last week to provide the updated registration forms and procedural information.
It never happened.
