Oct. 27 Deadline to Apply for a Mail Ballot for the November General Election

Secretary of the Commonwealth Al Schmidt reminds registered Pennsylvania voters who want to vote by mail that they have until Oct. 27 to apply for their ballot for the Nov. 3 general election.

"Voting by mail is a convenient, safe, and secure option for eligible Pennsylvanians," Sec. Schmidt said. "Those who prefer to vote by mail should apply today to ensure they have time to receive, mark, and return their ballot by Election Day."

Mail ballot applications must be received by a voter's county elections board by 5 p.m. Oct. 27.
