Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose declared earlier this month that absentee ballots dropped off by close relatives cannot be placed in drop boxes. Instead, they must be taken inside the elections office and an attestation form must be signed declaring they are legally authorized to return the ballot.
The ballot drop-off box located in the parking lot behind the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections office at 2925 Euclid Ave., in Cleveland. CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Ohio Democratic Party and others have filed a lawsuit with the Ohio Supreme Court seeking to invalidate Secretary of State Frank LaRose’s directive that only voters submitting their own ballots can use county Board of Elections drop boxes.
Late last month, LaRose ordered that anyone returning a ballot for someone else would have to either mail the ballot or drop it off inside the elections office, where they must also sign a form attesting that they are legally doing so.
