Voter ID laws: Ohio now requires a photo ID to vote in person. What you need to know

How do I check my voter registration?

You can register to vote online at olvr.ohiosos.gov. The online voter registration system allows users to both register to vote and update their voter registration address.

The website will ask you to provide information and documents such as an Ohio driver's license or ID number, date of birth, address, and the last four digits of your Social Security number. Those unable to provide this information should complete a vote update form and submit it to your county's board of elections.

What if I want to register to vote in person?

You can register to vote in person at election boards, public libraries and Bureau of Motor Vehicles locations. The Ohio Secretary of State's website lists other locations where you can also register, including:

  • The Office of the Secretary of State
  • The office of one of the 88 district election committees
  • The office of the registrar or a deputy registrar of the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles
  • Public high schools or vocational schools
  • County Treasurer's Offices

It is also possible to register to vote by mail, but this deadline has expired for the November 2024 election.
