Okay, that added portion clarifies why passports aren’t acceptable for residency purposes. They show citizenship, thus establishing eligibility to vote, but they don’t prove WHERE you are entitled to vote. I guess if you had a passport with proof of residency it would work.

Ohio is apparently very difficult to get residency in. One of my co-workers is from Ohio originally and her D chose to go to school there. It’s her 4th year and she is just now getting residency, in large part because they refused to accept that she was living off campus with her aunt rent free. She finally drew up a lease and is giving her aunt rent money in order to get residency. She has a job there, pays taxes, registers and insures a car and more but they wouldn’t give her in state tuition until this semester. I am not sure if she is voting, haven’t asked.
