The bill also largely ends special elections in August and specifies that county boards of election can only offer a single drop box for completed absentee ballots.

House Bill 458 requires a voter to show a photo ID when voting in person, either early or on Election Day. COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio General Assembly approved a sweeping elections bill early Thursday morning that includes a tougher ID requirement for voters, sending the package to Gov. Mike DeWine’s desk.

The bill includes a slew of other measures, including largely ending special elections in August, specifying that county boards of election can offer only a single drop box for completed absentee ballots, and eliminating the day of early, in-person voting the day before Election Day. In addition, it changes the deadline to apply for an absentee ballot to seven days before Election Day, compared to the current deadline of three days.
