OP
No it hasn't. The Ohio Governor wants to extend voting to June 2, but does not have the authority

I heard from msnbc that the gov. suggested to delay in-person voting till 6-2. However, it needs a court order in order for it to happen. So it's still up in the air as to what's happening tomorrow.

I hope they postpone.
I don't want to go out to vote tomorrow, but I will if they don't postpone.
