In Ohio, a federal judge has blocked an order from Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose limiting the installation of ballot drop boxes to just one location per county. The Thursday ruling allows for ballot drop boxes to be placed in multiple areas, where they are needed.
In related news, a federal appeals court in Wisconsin has reversed a ruling from last week that granted extra time to receive and count absentee ballots due to the coronavirus pandemic. Absentee ballots in the state will now only be counted if they are returned by Election Day.
