OH GOP: Still fighting absentee voting
It's fairly obvious they're trying to sow confusion to discourage people from voting absentee.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The state has proposed settling a lawsuit over a new voter identification law by allowing some absentee ballots to be counted even if an ID was not provided, Ohio's top attorney said Wednesday.

...

Attorney General Jim Petro said he would be OK with accepting absentee ballots that do not contain the proper ID information, such as driver's license numbers, because voters have to show some kind of identification just to get an absentee ballot. The settlement would apply only to absentee ballots cast before approval of the proposed settlement.
