Find your polling place & sample ballot
Election Day is almost here, and Bedford residents are encouraged to double-check where they’ll be voting this year. Polling locations can sometimes change, so it’s best not to assume it’s the same as last time. Reviewing your sample ballot ahead of time helps you get familiar with the local races and issues that will appear. Taking a few minutes to prepare can help your trip to the polls go smoothly and stress-free.
Check voter ID information (bring the right ID)
Voters in Ohio need to bring an accepted form of identification when they go to vote. That usually includes a driver’s license, state ID, or certain government-issued documents. Before Election Day, make sure your ID is current and that your name and address are correct. Having your ID ready when you arrive keeps lines moving and helps make the process faster for everyone.
Vote-by-Mail reminder (important deadlines)
Today, November 3, 2025, is the final day for absentee or Vote-by-Mail ballots mailed within the United States to be postmarked in order to count. Ballots must arrive at the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections no later than Saturday, November 8, 2025. Those returning their ballot in person must do so by 7:30 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, November 4, 2025, for it to be counted. Double-check your envelope for the required signature and postage before mailing or dropping it off to make sure your vote is included.
