“With the 2024 General Election fast approaching, our priority is to make sure every voter has the opportunity to cast their ballot easily and securely,” said Chairman Omar Sabir. “By offering in-person mail ballot services, Satellite Election Offices, and multiple drop-off locations, we are empowering Philadelphians to take part in this vital election. Your vote is your voice—make sure it’s heard.”
“I’m proud of the incredible work our team has done to make ballots available in Philadelphia earlier than usual,” said Commissioner Seth Bluestein. “Our new Satellite Election Offices will make it easier than ever to get registered and receive a mail ballot before the consequential Presidential Election this November.”
«Regardless of the method they choose to vote or who they choose to support, voters should recognize that there is more than just the U.S. President that they can vote for.
