Ohio voters will decide on a constitutional amendment in November 2026 that would establish photo ID requirements for in-person voting, following passage of Senate Joint Resolution 10 in the Republican-controlled state Senate. The measure is one of five voter ID ballot initiatives appearing nationally in the 2026 election cycle.

Key Points

  • SJR 10 passed the Ohio Senate 22-9 with bipartisan support for a photo ID voting requirement
  • The amendment will appear on Ohio's November 3, 2026 ballot as a constitutional question
  • This is part of a broader national trend with five voter ID measures on ballots in 2026
