Mail-in Ballots

If you are registered to vote in the state of PA you can request a mail-in ballot without providing a reason (unlike absentee ballots). You can request your ballot online if you have a PA photo ID (a PA driver’s license or a PA photo ID issued by the PA Dept of Transportation).

At this time, we are recommending that voters strongly consider requesting a mail-in ballot to avoid long lines as well as potential transmission of the COVID-19 flu.

To request a mail-in ballot, please visit the PA Voter Services website. Make sure that you give yourself plenty of time to receive your ballot AND to get it back to the MontCo election office by the date of the election (postmarks do NOT count; your ballot must be at the county election office by 8pm of primary or election day.
