The Senate bill would require voters to present a state-issued photo ID, U.S. passport or military ID to cast their ballot in-person

would require voters to present a state-issued photo ID, U.S. passport or military ID to cast their ballot in-person, although it doesn't need to to have their current address on it. As part of that, any Ohioan 17 and older would be eligible to receive a free state ID card. Licenses and ID cards must also note if the person is not a U.S. citizen.

Requires voters who want to vote by mail to submit an application at least seven days before Election Day, instead of three. Permits only one ballot drop box per county that's installed at the county board of elections office. Eliminates in-person voting the Monday before Election Day and reallocates those hours to another time.
