“The more people that vote absentee, and the more people that vote early, are the fewer that we have to serve on election day. And what we want to do is minimize any existence of lines. We want to minimize any crowding or chaotic environments with lots of people at polling locations.” – Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose
