2024 Election Information

VOTE BY MAIL – In January, the Secretary of the Commonwealth’s Elections Division mailed postcard applications for Vote by Mail for 2024 elections. If you selected “All 2024 Elections” you received mailed ballots for the Presidential Primary and for the April 11 Local Election.  You will also receive a mailed ballot for the Sept. 3 State Primary and the Nov. 5 State Election.  YOU DO NOT NEED TO APPLY AGAIN.  If you did not return the January postcard, you will receive another postcard in mid-July for the State Primary.  If you are unenrolled please be sure to check off which ballot you want to receive for the Primary and please sign the postcard.
