OUR VOTE IS OUR POWER It is very easy to register to vote, request a Mail-In Ballot and check your voter registration status in Pennsylvania. If you are unsure of your voter registration status you can check it on this website. By clicking on “Check Your Status” you can see not only if you are registered, but also what address is listed for your voter registration. You can also opt-in to receive text updates about upcoming elections. You will also be able to update your registration if your mailing or residential address has changed. The website also allows you to sign up to receive a Mail-In Ballot. MORE VOTING RESOURCES For additional information regarding voting, such as upcoming elections and contacting your county Board of Elections, you can: Visit the following state website: https://www.pa.gov/agencies/vote.html Clicking on any of the individual sections, such as “Voting at a Polling Place,” will give you additional voting resources. For example, if your name is not in the poll book at your polling place, you can still vote by provisional ballot. Or if you requested a Mail-In Ballot and never received it, you have the right to vote at your polling place using a provisional ballot. Or if you have your Mail-In ballot along with the outer return envelope, you can surrender it at your polling place and vote in person. Since individual county Board of Election Offices handle Mail-In Ballots differently and have different polling locations, you will need to contact your specific Board of Election office to obtain that information. By clicking on “Contact Your County Election Office,” you can locate the website for your specific Board of Elections Office. You would then click on your county to get that information. By going to your county Board of Election Office website you can locate your polling place, contact county staff, and locate drop box locations for Mail-In Ballots. You can also request that the staff replace and reissue Mail-In Ballots if an issue arises.
