It’s Election Hero Day! A world of thanks to the approximately one million election workers in the US! From local poll workers to county and state election staff, election workers are working around the clock to make sure that every eligible voter can cast their ballot securely and have it accurately counted.
And if you haven’t already, it’s time to vote! In PA (and many other states), tomorrow is Election Day! Below are links to find your polling location, return your mail ballot, and more. There are many critical races on the ballot this year, who make decisions impacting you and your family’s day to day lives. In PA these include state and local judges, district attorneys, school board and more. Don’t sit this out- make your voice heard.
🗳️ If you have requested a mail ballot in PA, the deadline for your ballot to be RECEIVED by your county is Tuesday November 4! Don’t mail it, it is too late for it to be received in time. Complete it and drop in a secure county dropbox or in person at a designated county location, which you can find here: https://www.pa.gov/agencies/vote/voter-support/mail-in-and-absentee-ballot/return-ballot
🗳️For mail ballots, don’t forget the 3 things you must do to have your vote counted: 1) put your marked ballot inside the inner yellow secrecy envelope and insert the secrecy envelope into the outer addressed envelope; 2) sign the outer envelope; and 3) put TODAY’S DATE on the outer envelope. Not your birth date. The date you complete your ballot.
🗳️If you voted by mail ballot and have not received an email telling you whether your ballot has been received, check https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov/Pages/BallotTracking.aspx for your ballot status.
