Ohio Secretary of State’s office is sending information about how to get registered to vote to 110,448 Ohioans who are eligible to vote but aren’t yet registered.
This initiative is in coordination with the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC), a non-profit organization who assists participating states in the effort to improve the accuracy of their voter rolls and increase access to voter registration. 30 states and Washington, D.C. are members of ERIC.

Bluffton University is a member of the HCAC. Other schools are Anderson, Earlham, Manchester, Defiance, Mt. St. Joseph, Franklin, Rose-Hulman, Transylvania and Hanover.
