VOTER ID LAW

On November 6, 2012, Philadelphia voters will be able to vote a regular ballot on the voting machines even if they do not have a photo ID. However, poll workers will ask voters for Photo ID. There are separate ID requirements for first time voters.

Pennsylvania voters will be required to bring an approved Photo ID to the polls in order to vote on May 14, 2013 and all later elections. For more information, visit www.votespa.com. ID's are available from PennDOT for no charge for voters who have no other ID approved for voting.

Welcome to the new site for the office of the City Commissioners and Philadelphia County Board of Elections. The vision of this office is to provide an enhanced resource for voters, candidates for office and their campaigns, as well as the general public. We, the board of commissioners are united in our vision of a transparent, highly accessible and effective organization that provides for fair, effective and lawful elections with the integrity that the people of Philadelphia deserve.

What you see here is only a preview of the functionality and content that we will provide over the coming months as this site evolves. During that time we will provide a development environment where the public can view future enhancements and tools and provide valuable feedback. Some of future functionality highlights include:

  • Powerful visual election data analysis tools
  • Multimedia content for training and education for voters and election workers
  • Personalized tools to empower you to encourage others to participate in the voting process
  • Tools for registering to vote, finding your polling place, requesting assistance with voting
