Voting is one of the most important rights in any democracy, but disabled people, especially incarcerated disabled people, continue to face unique challenges when it comes to voting in America. Our mission at DRO is to eliminate those challenges through legal and legislative advocacy while answering any questions our community may have in the meantime.

The perspectives of people with disabilities are vital to realizing an equitable future and DRO is dedicated to making sure these perspectives play their part in molding our democracy.

This page is designed to answer all your questions when it comes to voting so that you can create a better future for all of us! Above is a carousel of important information for voting in Ohio. Below is an accordion providing resources on how to sign up to vote, how to get to the voting booth, or how to submit and track your absentee ballot. In addition, DRO is proud to provide a hotline at 614-466-7264 or 800-292-9181 to assist you on election day.
