Pennsylvania readies for May primary
MERCER, Pa. (WKBN) – Pennsylvania’s Primary Election Day is coming up. You have until Monday to register to vote.
If you want to request a mail-in or absentee ballot, you can do that until May 12. Mercer County Election Director Thad Hall said voters should do some research before they head to the polls.
“One thing for people to keep in mind for this primary is the ballots do not have a lot of competition. For instance, there’s no competition on either the Democrat and Republican side for governor, and so people should research the races that are on the ballot. You can find your ballot on our website, mercercountypa.gov,” Hall said.
Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on election day, May 19.
