🗳️ Hey Pittsburgh and Allegheny County: It's almost time to vote in the highly anticipated 2024 election.
With Pennsylvania mail-in ballots trickling in and Nov. 5 less than a month away, do you know who is running for office in both national and statewide races?Â
PublicSource composed an Election guide to help you keep track of key upcoming dates, check your voter registration, find your polling place and learn more about the candidates running in congressional and legislative races organized by county.Â
If you know someone in Allegheny, Armstrong, Beaver, Butler, Fayette, Lawrence, Washington or Westmoreland counties who could benefit from county-specific ballot guides, forward this email to them. And, if you need help with how and where to return mail-in ballots in Allegheny County, learn more here.
As you learn more about who you are voting for, read about how some Pittsburgh Public Schools teachers are teaching newly registered high school voters — a constituency that often gets information from sources like TikTok — about media literacy, government and misinformation.
