OH starts counting absentee ballots 10 days after an election. LisaL Nov 2016 #17

That is incorrect--PROVISIONAL ballots are counted 10 days after Maeve Nov 2016 #18

Here is an article from 2012. LisaL Nov 2016 #19

Another reason early voting can be easier in Ohio--no photo ID required Maeve Nov 2016 #24

Considering early voting in Cuyahoga is down,it's a good thing Franklin is doing well. LisaL Nov 2016 #29
