2025 Primary Election: Mail Ballot Processing Error


Due to a vendor processing error on Monday, May 5, 2025, approximately 329 voters with mailing addresses in ZIP code 19146 may have received an incorrect ballot. These ballots may include contests for which the voter is not eligible to vote.

The Board is notifying all the potentially affected voters, and providing them with replacement ballots with the correct contests.

Affected voters may vote and/or return the corrected ballot in the following ways:

  • By mail
  • In person at any drop box or Satellite Election Office (open until 8 P.M. on Election Day)
  • Alternatively, you may choose to bring your balloting materials (envelopes and ballot) to your polling place on Election Day to be surrendered, at which point you will be permitted to vote on a voting machine. If you do not return either ballot but forget to bring your balloting materials with you to your polling place, you may vote by provisional ballot.

Due to the limited time remaining, the Board strongly encourages voters to personally deliver their ballots. All ballot drop off locations can be found at vote.phila.gov/ballot-drop-off.

Replacement ballots such as those described above will be compared to poll book voting records after Election Day before they are canvassed.
