How to Vote in the 2022 General Election in PA
Everything you need to know about voting in Philadelphia before (or during) the 2022 election on November 8.

The next election in Philadelphia is Tuesday, November 8, 2022 though mail-in ballots will begin circulating in September.
We put together this handy how-to-vote guide so you can step into the voting booth (or fill out a mail-in ballot) with confidence in who and what youre voting for this election season.
Keep reading to find easy tips on how to register to vote in Pennsylvania, how to check your registration status, how to sign up for mail-in ballots, and how to find your polling place and voting district.
An informed voter is the best kind of voter (though all voters are pretty great), so we hope youll find this useful in the pursuit of your No. 1 civic duty.
First, some important dates: Voting season officially begins on September 19 50 days before the election. Mail-in ballots should begin arriving sometime around then, though theyve been kind of late the last few elections. October 24 is the deadline to register to vote in the general election. November 1 is the last day to request a mail-in or absentee ballot for the general election.

The first time I voted (and for almost 10 years thereafter) it was absentee.
