Election Day is just three weeks away, but there\u2019s no need to wait to get your vote in.<\/p>\n
Lehigh Valley voters can request, receive, vote and submit their mail-in or absentee ballot all in one visit to their county election office.<\/p>\n
In both Lehigh and Northampton County, voters can take advantage of this on-demand voting option during the election offices\u2019 regular hours:<\/p>\n
Northampton County: 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, plus 9 a.m. to noon Oct. 17 and 26. The last day for on-demand voting is Oct. 27.<\/p>\n

Residents who already applied for a mail-in ballot are not eligible for on-demand voting and must wait to receive their ballot in the mail.<\/p>\n
Voters must bring a valid ID to the election office to receive an on-demand ballot. Voters can fill out the ballot in the office and return it the same day, or take it home to fill out and and mail it back, or drop it in a ballot drop box.<\/p>\n
