2020 Primary Election Revised Polling Locations

Montgomery County officials have instituted a "pandemic election plan", to temporarily reduce the number of polling places for the June 2 primary election in response to the COVID-19 outbreak in our region. Officials have moved polling places to empty public school buildings for the primary election only. See your new polling location in red under your usual polling location. If your polling location was previously located in a public school, it will remain there. For additional information please visit the Montgomery County Voter Services website by clicking here.

Voter Registration

To qualify as a voter, a resident must register after meeting four requirements: (1) eighteen years of age, (2) a U.S. citizen for at least one month, (3) a resident of the election district at least 30 days, (4) a resident of Pennsylvania for at least 30 days. Voters who move within the state within 30 days prior to an election may vote in that election at their previous election district. Registration is permanent unless an elector moves to another election district or fails to vote for two consecutive years.

Electors may pick up voter registration applications at most public buildings: Municipal Buildings, Libraries, Liquor Stores, Post Offices. Fill out the application and submit it to the Voter Registration Office. Registration books close 30 days before any election and are reopened five days after a Primary Election and 30 days after General or Municipal Election. Electors may also register to vote online.

The third Tuesday in May is Primary Election Day in Pennsylvania except in presidential election years when the Primary is held on the fourth Tuesday in April. Only voters registered in a political party can vote for that party's candidates in a Primary although independent voters may vote on referendum questions that appear on Primary Election ballots.
