Secretary LaRose Launches 2026 Voter Information Toolkit Ahead of May Primary

Issues Call to Action for Ohio Leaders to Help Spread the Word in their Communities

(Columbus) – Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose has released a 2026 Voter Information Toolkit to help educate voters about recent changes to Ohio’s election laws and is calling on community leaders across the state to help share the information.

“This toolkit equips local leaders with the facts and resources they need to help their communities approach our upcoming elections with confidence,” said Secretary LaRose. “Ohio has a strong record of conducting transparent, accessible elections. When the law changes, it’s our shared responsibility to ensure voters have accurate, up-to-date information so they can successfully make their voice heard.”

The toolkit is part of a broader voter education effort by the Secretary of State’s office and Ohio’s 88 county boards of elections, including public service announcements and outreach initiatives such as Grads Vote.

“Ohio offers three convenient ways to vote,” LaRose added. “If you plan to vote absentee, be sure to request your ballot early and return it promptly so it arrives at your county board of elections by Election Day.”

The office distributed the toolkit to hundreds of local leaders and community organizations statewide, encouraging them to participate in the public information campaign and help keep voters informed ahead of the May primary.

The full toolkit can be found here, and every eligible Ohioan is encouraged to make their plan to vote at VoteOhio.gov.
