Voter ID Gets Major Mail-In Ballot Boost From Ohio Legislature

The Ohio Legislature passed a bill that would require photo ID to be submitted starting in 2027 for absentee voters’ mail-in ballots.

That’s in addition to what’s coming this November, when voters get the opportunity to enshrine Ohio’s current voter ID law into the state constitution.

If Gov. Mike DeWine signs House Bill 472 into law, absentee voters will have to show ID beginning with the November 2027 election.

A spokesperson for DeWine’s office told the Daily Signal on Thursday that staff “are currently reviewing the numerous bills passed yesterday by the General Assembly.”

HB 472 passed the General Assembly earlier this year with one vote in opposition. It was originally introduced by state Reps. Christine Cockley, a Democrat, and Jodi Salvo, a Republican, as a bill to waive fees for birth certificate copies for homeless people and permit the storage of documents.

Cockley claimed that “Senate Republicans hijacked” the bill she sponsored and asked for her name to be taken off.
