REGISTERING TO VOTE
If you want to register to vote yourself, the process is simple and fast.
PENNSYLVANIA-SPECIFIC INFORMATION
The next election is the national primary on April 28, 2020.
REQUIREMENTS
In order to register to vote in PA, you must: be 18 on or before the next election, be a resident of PA for at least 30 days before the next election, and a citizen of the United States.
INFORMATION NEEDED
The PA form will ask you for EITHER your driver's license number or the last four digits of your social security number. If you do not have either, there is a box you can check on the form and the Montgomery County Election Office will reach out with more information.
AFTER YOU REGISTER
Once you register, the election office will mail you your approved voter registration in a few weeks. On election day, you will be required to bring a valid form of ID with you (only for your first time).  Scroll down for information about polling locations.
REGISTRATION FORMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
The link above has information on upcoming election dates, voter registration requirements, and identification requirements.
The link above has mail-in voter registration forms available for all states in multiple languages. To check if your state allows online registration, look it up on the state's government voter services website.
On election day, you will have to vote at a polling place assigned according to your address. Click the link above to find out where your polling location is.
REGISTERING WITH A PARTY
When you register, you will be asked to affiliate yourself with a party: Republican, Democrat, Independent, or another third-party. Some states (list here) have closed/partially closed primaries, which places restrictions on who you can vote for.
If you want to change your party, the process is easy.
VOTING IN COLLEGE
Don't worry, you can still vote in college! If you are registered in Pennsylvania but will attend college elsewhere, you will vote at a local polling place, but still for Pennsylvania elections (as long as you don't change your official place of residence).
I'M CONFUSED.
That's okay. Feel free to call your local election office (information here) with any specific questions you may have, or contact us directly.
