ELECTION UPDATE | 1.3M-plus Ohioans voted early

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Latest on Election Day in Ohio. (all times local): 6:30 p.m. A federal judge has ordered a county elections board in Ohio to deliver absentee ballot applications and ballots to two jail inmates named in a lawsuit seeking emergency ballots for Ohioans in police custody through Election Day. The lawsuit was filed Tuesday by three voting rights groups on behalf of two Montgomery County Jail inmates. The Campaign Legal Center, MacArthur Justice Center and Demos requested officials statewide be required to notify detainees of their rights to submit absentee ballots. The lawsuit argues recently jailed inmates are denied their constitutional right to vote because they’re in custody with no voting options. The state delivers ballots to jailed Ohioans, but the deadline for requesting such ballots passed Friday. There was no answer to calls to Montgomery County’s board Tuesday. ——— 6 p.m. An Ohio elections official says a paper jam caused an issue with a voter whose paper ballot appeared to show a different selection for governor. A voter in Franklin County in central Ohio posted an Instagram video that showed a touch-screen selection for Ohio Republican gubernatorial candidate Mike DeWine appearing on paper as the Democratic candidate, Richard Cordray. Aaron Sellers is a spokesman for the Franklin County Board of Elections. He says the machine in question had a paper jam and was taken offline. Sellers says the voter was moved to another machine and cast a ballot successfully. A few other problems were reported at polling places in Lucas and Hamilton counties, where elections officials say the issues have been resolved. ——— 4:00 p.m. Some voters in Ohio say Republican President Donald Trump was a factor when casting their Election Day ballots. Kevin Benson, a 38-year-old graphic designer from Westerville, says he’s registered as a Republican, considers himself an independent, and voted all Democrat Tuesday. He says that’s mostly because of Trump, adding he’s “frustrated” with the way the president is acting. Grant Stitzlein, a 30-year-old registered Republican, says he followed Trump’s advice when casting his ballot in the Columbus suburb of Dublin. Stitzlein says he voted for Republicans in an effort to “make America great again.” Seventy-one-year-old Linda Bishop from Westerville says she voted for candidates from both major parties but stuck with Democrats in the gubernatorial and congressional races. She says her disapproval of Trump was a factor in her voting ——— 3:00 p.m. The Ohio Secretary of State’s office says more than 1.3 million people voted ahead of Tuesday’s election, far outpacing the number of votes cast early statewide four years ago. Officials say that through Monday, nearly 885,000 absentee ballots had been received by mail statewide and that 430,000 people voted early in person. That compares with around 719,000 people mailing in ballots in 2014 and 146,000 people voting early in person, for a total of about 865,000. Just over 1 million votes were cast early in 2010. The total number of votes cast statewide in 2014 was 3.1 million compared with nearly 4 million in 2010. Around 8 million Ohioans are registered to vote.
