The claim's figures do not match the record: Ohio's certified 2020 total was about 5.97 million ballots, so 914,000 is roughly 15% of the total, not 20%, and no source reports 914,000. The extracted claim faithfully matches the passage, which gives the same figures.

What we found

Contradicts. Ohio's certified 2020 results show 5,974,121 ballots cast statewide, a record, with 74% turnout, which contradicts a 914,000 total and any 20% share built on it.[2][3][4][5]

Contradicts. At 914,000 of about 5.97 million ballots, the share is about 15%, not roughly 20%, so the stated percentage is also off.[2][5]

Context. Ohio's early and absentee share of 2020 votes was 58.6%, and no source gives 914,000 as an early-vote, mail, or other subset count, so the figure cannot be matched to any category.[2][3]

Context. Sources 5 and 3 give partial or county-level 2020 figures (e.g., 3,372,833 mail and early ballots returned as of September, Cuyahoga's 631,199 ballots cast), which do not produce 914,000 as a statewide number.[1][6]
