REPORT: A Justice Agenda – Ohio’s Missing Voters

Innovation Ohio Education Fund (IOEF) presented another installment to our 2023 project, A Justice Agenda: “Ohio’s Missing Voters”. For this report, IOEF undertook a comprehensive analysis of publicly-maintained and commercial voter lists within the Ohio voter file. Our objective was to gain deeper insights into the population of unregistered and inactive voters across our great state. Leveraging data sources from Catalist, the US Census, and the Ohio Secretary of State, this report seeks to estimate both the size and characteristics of significant groups. Our focus, as outlined in this report, will be on the geographical distribution of these voters, their demographic composition, and provide potential recommendations. This report was made possible by the dedicated staff at the Innovation Ohio Education Fund.
