PA Early Voting Delayed


Due to a series of Minor Party Ballot access Challenges pending before the State Supreme Court, Pennsylvania Ballots are Not yet ready. Had those Cases Not been Active and had Ballots been Finalized, Counties in Pennsylvania could have begun Early Voting today.

Sept. 16th, 50 days before the General Election, is the day Pennsylvania Counties are required to start Processing Mail Ballot Applications.

Instead of traditional Early Voting, Pennsylvania Voters can apply for a Mail Ballot and Vote-in-Person, in the same Visit to their County Elections Office once Ballots are available.

According to the Pennsylvania Department of State's Office of Communications and Press: "The Secretary will certify a final list of candidates as soon as practicable after the resolution of those challenges, and county boards of elections will then begin delivery of mail ballots as soon as the ballot is certified and printed copies are available."

This means Ballots may Not be available until late September or early October.

Once Ballots are Finalized, the Department-of-State advises Voters to Contact their County Elections Office to Confirm Ballots are ready and see when the Office is Open for Voting.

The last day to Request a Mail Ballot and Vote-in-Person is Oct. 29th.
