Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose's gives a Q&A on top Ohio voting questions and concerns ahead of Election Day on Nov. 3:
1. It's the last day to register to vote in Ohio. I guess. What are your thoughts on how things are going so far?
2. This year, the way things are running is very different. But if you had to narrow it down to one biggest issue you have been seeing so far, what would it be?
3.  On a press conference about a month ago, you talked about the revamp of the secretary of state's website and how it has that been helping people get registered to vote easier. How is that going?
4. Absentee ballots. There's been a lot of people calling into question how safe they are and how they're going to work in this election, especially with the problems we've been having with USPS. Can you talk to me a little bit about how safe absentee ballots are in Ohio and what county boards of elections do to make sure all those votes get counted?
5. About those dropboxes I know there has been some kind of back and forth on whether or not counties will have more than one. Will you allow each county to have more than one box? I know Lucas County commissioners and other county officials in Ohio have been calling for additional drop boxes.
6. Do you think moving forward in the future, there could be an opportunity to have more than one drop box in each county and at different locations?
7. Signature validations. Could you explain what they are, who does them and how those work?
8. When it comes to voter fraud, what is the last instance of voter fraud you can recall here in Ohio?
9. In the event of a vote that doesn't get counted, is that typically a human error or computer error?
10. In the past couple of elections, we have seen a lot more election projections and where certain candidates stand in the race. Do you think those polls that national outlets release, influence people's votes? And, in a perfect world, if you were the one to decide, how would you have the press report on those polls?
11. Our president is in the hospital being treated for COVID-19. What if there's a situation in Ohio where Trump or any candidate is unable to run for president or for a certain office and the ballots are already printed? What does that process look like? 
12. So, there is no clear-cut process on what happens to those ballots then?
13. What are the exact rules when it comes to signs at polling places?
