Ohio early voting: An article in Section A on Sept. 30 about Ohio’s effort to curtail its 35-day early-voting period said the U.S. Supreme Court had allowed the state to cancel voting on the weekend before the election, including Sunday, when African American turnout is heaviest. The court’s emergency order did not address the final weekend, only the first week of early voting, when residents can register to vote and cast a ballot on the same day. The court allowed Ohio to scrap the initial week.
