Mail-in voting is underway in Bucks County ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm general election.
On Monday, Oct. 5, the Bucks County Board of Elections opened its seven in-person “on-demand” mail-in ballot locations, according to a press release from the county.
Each of the locations allow voters to apply in person for a mail-in or absentee ballot and receive their ballot during the visit if approved. Voter registration services are also offered, and an official ballot drop box is available on-site.
In addition to the “on-demand” voter services offered during previous elections at the county offices in Doylestown, Quakertown and Levittown, four new temporary satellite locations have been added this year at the Warminster Township Free Library and all three
Bucks County Community College campuses in Newtown, Bristol and Perkasie.
Hours vary by site, so voters should check the “on-demand” voting location calendar for specific hours ahead of visiting their preferred location.
Board of Election officials have also sent out the first batch of ballots last week to those who have already applied for a mail-in or absentee ballot, according to the release.
