At @PennStateLaw in University Park and @PennStateSIA, we have been collaborating to support voting. Please RT thread with information on #voting widely. 1/14
(1) Registering in #Pennsylvania: The last day to register to #vote in Pennsylvania is October 19. If you have not yet registered to vote, you only have four more days to do so! 2/14
(2) After Today, Request Your #Pennsylvania #MailInBallot in Person: While you may request a Pennsylvania mail-in ballot until Oct. 24, voters are strongly encouraged to request their mail-in ballot in person after Thursday, Oct 15 in case of delays in receiving it. 3/14
(4) #Pennsylvania Deadline for Returning #Ballots: While voters are strongly encouraged to request & return their ballots before the deadlines, @PASupremeCt ruled that mailed ballots postmarked by Nov 3 will be counted, so long as the elections office receives them by Nov 6. 5/14
(5) PA #Voting deadlines here: https://www.votespa.com/Abo.../Pages/Upcoming-Elections.aspx. Once you cast your mail-in ballot you can track it at https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov/pages/ballottracking.aspx. 6/14
(6) #Voting Resource for All States: If you are planning to vote in another state, the @PSUPILOTlab has created a 50-state #AbsenteeBallot and #MailInBallot resource: https://www.pilotlab.org/vote . 7/14
(7) Verifying Voting Information: Please remember to verify that any election-related information is correct before sharing. @CentreCountyGov voting website: http://centrecountyvotes.org . Outside Centre County, use resources like http://vote.org . 8/14
If you would like to engage with the election beyond casting your ballot, there are a number of opportunities. Note that at #PennState, Election Day participation can be an excused absence. 9/14
