IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS/VOTER ID LAW
First-time voters may be required to show identification when voting for the first time at a polling place. Accepted IDs include a driver’s license, utility bill, or other government-issued identification.
Please note: While Pennsylvania does not require voters to present photo ID when voting, first-time voters may be required to show ID when voting at the polls.
PARTY AFFILIATION
Voters may choose to affiliate with a political party (Democratic, Republican, etc.) when registering, or they can register as “No Party” (Independent). This affects primary elections, where only party-affiliated voters can vote in that party’s primary.

You must update your registration if you move, change your name, or wish to change party affiliation. This can be done online, by mail, or in person.
