据10月24日报道，俄亥俄州务卿办公室的选举仪表盘显示，截至10月23日，该州已发出1,240,470张提前投票选票。其中邮寄缺席选票712,710张，已交回395,033张，交回率约55%；现场提前投票已有527,760人完成投票。两项合计，已交回的选票为922,793张，约占已发出选票的74%，相当于该州2024年选举时约820万登记选民的11.2%。俄亥俄州本届提前投票自10月6日开始，现场投票持续至11月1日；10月24日（周六）现场投票时间为上午8时至下午4时，10月26日起工作日的投票时间延长，10月31日为上午8时至下午4时，11月1日为下午1时至5时，大多数邮寄选票须在选举日11月3日晚7时30分前交回。州务卿办公室提醒选民，可提前在网上查看自己的样本选票，再前往投票点。本届中期选举中，俄亥俄州长和联邦参议员选战竞争激烈，是推动提前投票踊跃的原因之一。
Ohio Has Issued 1.24 Million Early Ballots: Nearly 922,800 Returned as of Oct. 23
According to an Oct. 24 report, the Ohio Secretary of State's election dashboard shows that as of Oct. 23 the state had issued 1,240,470 early ballots. Of those, 712,710 were mailed absentee ballots, of which 395,033 had been returned, a return rate of about 55 percent; another 527,760 voters had already voted at in-person early voting sites. In total, 922,793 ballots had been returned, about 74 percent of those issued and equivalent to 11.2 percent of the state's roughly 8.2 million registered voters as of the 2024 election. Ohio's early voting period began Oct. 6, with in-person voting running through Nov. 1; hours on Saturday, Oct. 24, are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., weekday hours expand starting Oct. 26, Oct. 31 hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Nov. 1 hours are 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., and most mailed ballots must be returned by 7:30 p.m. on Election Day, Nov. 3. Competitive races for Ohio governor and the U.S. Senate in this midterm are among the reasons early voting has been brisk.
