The deadline to register to vote in the Nov. 8 presidential election is this week.
You may need to re-register if your name has been purged from the voting rolls for any number of reasons.
Find out if you are registered to vote at http://voterlookup.sos.state.oh.us/voterlookup.aspx. Registration forms can be downloaded from the Ohio secretary of state’s website or picked up at any county board of elections and must be filled out and mailed to your local county board of elections by Tuesday. Absentee balloting begins the next day.
The voter registration form includes information on requesting an absentee ballot.
