俄亥俄州终止了多数投递选票的宽限期, 仅保留给军方和海外选民。 Ohio ends most mail-in ballot grace period, keeping it only for military and overseas voters.

俄亥俄州取消了四天的宽限期,除军方和海外选民外,允许将选举日标注的邮寄选票在收到较晚时进行计票,但军事和海外选民除外。 Ohio has eliminated the four-day grace period allowing mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if received late, except for military and overseas voters. 由参议院第293号法案推动并得到共和党人支持的这一变革回应了美国司法部对潜在欺诈的关切,尽管没有证据表明欺诈现象普遍存在。 The change, driven by Senate Bill 293 and backed by Republicans, responds to U.S. Department of Justice concerns over potential fraud, though no evidence of widespread fraud exists. 批评者警告此举可能会剥夺选民在邮政延误面前的投票权, 而支持者则表示此举会加强选举的诚信。 Critics warn the move may disenfranchise voters facing postal delays, while supporters say it strengthens election integrity. 该法案按政党路线通过,正等待总督Mike DeWine的批准。 The bill passed along party lines and awaits Governor Mike DeWine’s approval.
