COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- This weekend marks the last time voters in Ohio can cast their ballot early before Tuesday's election. Ohioans have two more chances, on Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m., to take part in early in-person voting at their county boards of elections before Election Day on Tuesday. Ohio requires in-person voters to have a form of photo identification in order to vote. That includes an Ohio driver's license, an Ohio ID card, a U.S. passport or passport card, a U.S. military ID, a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ID, or an Ohio National Guard ID. What yes or no vote really means for Ohio Issue 1 All identification must have an expiration date that has not passed, a photograph of the voter, and the voter's name, which must substantially conform to the voter's name as it appears in the poll list. If voters do not have any of the above forms of identification, they may cast a provisional ballot. However, for that ballot to be counted, voters must return to the board of elections no later than four days after Election Day to provide a qualifying form of identification. Those who requested and completed an absentee ballot must ensure their ballot is postmarked by the day before the election, on Monday. Voters can also return their absentee ballot in person to their county board of elections before the polls close at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The United States Postal Service had recommended those who are voting by absentee to mail their ballot by this past Tuesday. A spokesperson said the postal service is anticipating an uptick of ballots in the mail over the coming days. What to know about Ohio’s U.S. Senate race between Sherrod Brown and Bernie Moreno "We continue to recommend that it is a good common-sense measure for voters who choose to mail in their ballots to do so before Election Day and at least a week before their election office needs to receive them," the USPS said. The Postal Service estimated that 99.89% of mail-in ballots will be delivered to their respective counting sites within a week. On average, USPS estimates it takes about a day and a half to make the delivery. There are many resources on Ohio's Secretary of State's website that will make your trip to the polls easier: View your sample ballot here. Find your Tuesday polling location here.
