April 22, 2010 - 7:12 pm 1 Comment

I I move out of state to go to college, I will only have two months to make sure I can vote in that state.

If I move to say, Pittsburg from out of state, how do I ensure that I will be able to register and vote in 2008. what documents will I need to bring? what should I watch out for?

Here are the residency requirements for the state of Pennsylvania. From what you wrote, you WILL be eligible to register to vote, as they have a 30-day residency requirement.

Here is some information from a website in the State of Pennsylvania with lots of good information:

Pennsylvania Voter Registration

To register You Must:

Be a citizen of the United States at least one month before the election;

Be a resident of Pennsylvania and your election district at least 30 days before the election; and

Be eighteen (18) on the day of the next election.

Note: You are not registered to vote until your application has been filled out, processed and accepted by the county voter registration officer. If accepted, the county registration office will send you via nonforwardable mail a Voter Identification Card. If you do not receive an Identification Card within 14 days of the date of your application, you should contact the Voter Registration Office

To obtain a Pennsylvania Voter Registration Mail Application or an application for "Absentee Ballot" visit the Office of Voter Services
Registration Forms are also available at libraries, township buildings, most post offices, and state liquor stores. The Voter Services Office does not mail applications.

The Online Pennsylvania Voter Registration Form is now available. You can complete the form online, print, sign and mail to the County’s Voter Services Office

If there is a change in the location of your polling place, you will be issued a new ID card and the new location will be printed on that card.

See below for frequently asked questions and the voter registration and absentee ballot application deadlines.

You can establish residency by moving to an address in the county you wish to vote in. Once you have a permanent address, you can register. You don’t need anything else except filling out the registration form and signing it under penalty of perjury. However, you should be careful and get a temporary driver’s license, and the Dept. of Moter Vehicles will mail your new license to the address you list. Also, you can show a copy of your lease, or receipt for rent, or a utllity bill, or telephone bill. You could also just go down and re-register your automobile if you have one. just in case. You can do something as simple as getting a library card in the city or county of where you live. Any government document sent to your new address by the US or state government will show your new address as recognized by a governmental agency. You may have to bring some photo identification to the polling place to show the poll workers ( I am unclear on that in Pennsylvania). If there are any questions, just call the registrar of voters or county clerk in that county. If you need help, a good source of good information is just as close as calling the county office of the political party you wish to register with. They can help you register to vote, and give you all the details.

I registered to vote in the 2006 election and I haven’t moved or changed my address. Do I need to re-register?

In most cases, you will not have to re-register. If you have not moved addresses, you will only have to re-register (complete the whole form all over again), or provide a written note to your election official if you change your name.

How do I register to vote in the general election?

April 14, 2010 - 3:08 pm 2 Comments

I am currently a University student who lives away from home. Whilst at university I completed a registering to vote form (in which I believe I requested to be registered at my home town). As I now spend much more of my time at university I wish to vote there. How do I go about changing this? If I register at my University City does it matter that I’m already registered at home?

All you have to do is contact the Local Authority where your university is and request that they register you to vote there instead of your home town.

Yes, it does mater, if you are registered at home you will not be able to vote where you are living now, if you contact the local authority now you may be able to change electoral roles. I think it may be to late though but its worth a try so ‘Depechy vous’
