Help, I still haven't filled out my mail-in ballot

It’s election day, voting is under way and you still haven’t gotten around to filling out your mail-in ballot. Now what?

There’s still time to get your ballot in or, in the alternative, vote at the polls. Polls open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m. on Nov. 7.

Mail-in ballots must be received by 8 p.m. today. Ballots received via the mail the next day — even with a May 20 postmark — won’t be counted.

Drop boxes
You can bring your filled-out, mail-in ballot to drop boxes as long as they are still open. Not all are open until 8 p.m.

In Lehigh County, the only place you can bring a mail-in ballot until 8 p.m. is the Lehigh County Election Office at the Government Center, 17 S. Seventh St., Allentown.

Voting in person
You can bring your uncompleted ballot to your polling place, surrender it and sign a declaration to vote. If you forget to bring your uncompleted ballot to the polls, you can vote provisionally – meaning your vote won’t be tallied until verified.
