Early in-person voting kicked off in the Buckeye State today, and a steady stream of voters have filed in and out of Stark County, Ohio’s Board of Election office in the city of Canton.
David Swart, 62, of Canton, Ohio wanted to vote as soon as he could.
“I love early voting. I know I can get it in on my schedule,” Swart said. “It’s real important election, and it’s a lot of fundamental rights at risk.”
Swart is voting for Harris and said of Trump, “he’s such a liar. He’s such a crook.”
Peter Boyd, 52, who lives in Massillon, Ohio, said Project 2025, the conservative Heritage Foundation’s 922-page policy document, was one of the top reasons he’s voting for Harris.
Chris Kienzle, 69, from Minerva, Ohio, said women’s rights were her top issue. “I’m worried if Trump gets in there, that a lot of them are going to go away,” Kienzle said. “I have granddaughters, and I’m really, really worried about those rights for my granddaughters.”
Still, the economy was still top of mind for others.
“I don’t like Trump as a person, but I like his policies and what he’s done,” said Steve Emerick, 58, from Canton, Ohio, citing the corporate tax cut the Trump Administration passed in 2017.
Gary Freeman, 81, of Canton, Ohio, has voted for Trump each time he’s run for office.
“I don’t like the border. I don’t like the direction of the country. I don’t like the economy. I don’t like how our military is being run,” Freeman said. “I don’t like the immigrants coming in and the money that’s being spent on them.”
