The NAACP, the League of Women Voters of Ohio and Black churches sued; a federal judge ordered it restored in 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court stayed that order, and a 2015 settlement ended Golden Week permanently while adding some evening and Sunday voting hours.

"With party" counts only roll calls on which most Republicans and most Democrats voted opposite ways. The Ohio Legislature records who voted Yea and who voted Nay and no one else, so an absence cannot be told from an abstention and neither is counted; only floor votes are listed. For 2003 to 2006 the votes are read from the House and Senate Journals, which print no party, and a vote is left out wherever a surname in the Journal could be two members.

From the FEC's candidate summary file, which adds up a candidate's authorized committees and nets out refunds, so it can differ from one committee's own report.

Corrected September 24, 2026: the earlier Ohio share (54.45%) came from the FEC by-state endpoint, which counts transfers from joint fundraising committees under the fundraising committee's address; this figure counts only direct itemized individual contributions, by each contributor's filed address.

From inside Ohio: $1,385,565 (32%), as of June 30, 2026. Sum of itemized individual contributions (contributor entity IND, transaction types 10, 15 and 15E) to committee C00896019 in the FEC bulk file indiv26.zip for the 2025-2026 period, transactions dated 2025-01-21 to 2026-06-30 in whole dollars as the file carries them, memo rows (MEMO_CD X), refunds and the candidate's own contributions excluded; an Ohio address means the contributor's filed STATE is OH.
