EASTON, Pa. – The 2026 General Election is less than a month away and Ballot on-Demand voting is now available in most of Pennsylvania’s 67 counties.

In Northampton County, officials said on-demand voting gives voters more options leading up to Election Day on November 3rd.

It’s basically a “one-stop shop” for voters.

“It gives you the opportunity to come into the office and do the process right here in person,” said Chris Commini, Northampton County Registrar.

Election officials have tallied more than a dozen voters who made the trip to the county’s Election Office on the first day of Ballot-on-Demand voting on Monday, October 5th.

Voters can fill out an application and complete and return their ballots in one visit to the government center on Washington Street.

They may fill out the ballot in the office and return it the same day or take it home and mail it back.

Commini said voters can also use one of the county’s ten drop boxes or the drop boxes at the county’s six upcoming voter pop-up events.

“People tend to equate this as early voting in Pennsylvania. There is no early voting. It’s basically an on-demand process,” said Commini.

It’s a pretty simple one, according to Commini.

Voters have several days and times leading up to Tuesday, October 27th, to take advantage of on-demand voting opportunities.

Monday, October 5th – Friday, October 9th (8:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.)

Saturday, October 10th (9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.)

Monday, October 12th – COURTHOUSE CLOSED

Tuesday, October 13th- Friday, October 16th (8:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.)

Saturday, October 17th (9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.)

Monday, October 19th – Friday, October 23rd (8:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.)

Saturday, October 24th (9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.)

Monday, October 26th (8:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.)

The LAST day for Ballot “On-Demand” Services will be Tuesday, October 27th (8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.)

“I think it gives the voters some different options,” Commini said.

And there is one important thing to bring:

“An ID, because what we’ll do is we will check your ID before we hand you your official ballot,” said Commini. “We want to make sure that the person is who they say they are when we hand them their ballot.”

Residents can register to vote through October 19th.

Those voters who are not registered can do so online or at the county’s upcoming six voter pop-up events.

Commini said that registered voters who have already applied for a mail-in ballot are not eligible for on-demand voting. They must wait to receive their ballot in the mail.
