-- Yes, these people will be living in the state for 30 days priors to the election. Which is the same part of the law that allows college students to vote here in Ohio, as opposed to their home state. --

"Living in" is often different from "reside in." It's ignorant to believe that out-of-state students who are permitted to register and vote in Ohio DON'T also vote in their home state. If Ohio is permitting out-of-state students to register and vote, then there is a problem folks - either those kids ought to be getting in-state tuition (because they are residents), or they out to be denied in-state voting (because they are not residents).

Almost every state allows college students to vote when they are on campus, even if they are from another state. In-state tuition residency laws are different than voter registration laws.

As far as the state of Ohio, and its laws concerning voter registration, living in is a synonym of residing in.
