Your Questions,
Answered
Why are you running for committeeperson?
I’m running for committeeperson because I want to better know my neighbors and help us get out the vote and educate ourselves about the best candidates to serve our community whether for local or national office. I’m often walking around the neighborhood and look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas about issues of concern to you and how we can work together to strengthen democracy. Please read my Dear Neighbor Letter.
Am I registered to vote? How do I determine my ward and division?
Check your registration status. Use Find Your Polling Place to find not only your polling place but also which ward/division you live in. The 5th Square Ward elections app will give you more detail about who is running for committeeperson this year. For a Philadelphia committeeperson overview, see Committee of Seventy Philadelphia Ward Leaders & Committeepeople.
By when do I need to register in order to vote in the May 19 primary? What if I need to update my registration?
New PA Voter Registration if you have never registered to vote in PA. The last day to register in May 4, but best to register as early as possible to make sure you are eligible to vote in the primary.
Update PA Voter Registration if you are registered in Pennsylvania and recently moved to Mt. Airy and want to vote in the neighborhood. If you want to vote in the Democratic Primary and previously registered as a Republican or Independent, you’ll need to update your registration before May 4.
Can I vote by mail?
Yes. Apply for a mail-in/absentee ballot. The last day to apply is May 12, but best to do so earlier so you have time to receive it, fill it out and mail it back in time to reach the Philadelphia City election office by May 19 at 8 PM. You can also take your ballot to a drop-off location.
