Mover's Guide: Pennsylvania

Under federal law, if you move within 30 days of a presidential election, you are allowed to vote for President and Vice President in your former state of residence, either in person or by absentee ballot.

If you moved to Pennsylvania from another state, you must register to vote in Pennsylvania to be able to vote.The last day to register in time to vote in the next election is thirty days before the election. If you moved from out of state, you are eligible to register if you have been a citizen of the United States for at least one month and if you have been a resident of Pennsylvania and of the election district in which you want to vote for the thirty days prior to the day of the election.

If you moved to a new address that is covered by the same polling place as your old address, you can vote at that polling place after confirming your new address at the polling place. This is true regardless of how close to the election you moved.

If you moved to a new address within the same county but with a different polling place, you can vote at the polling place associated with your old address after confirming your new address in writing.

If you moved to a new address that is in a different county, you can vote at the polling place associated with your old address after confirming your new address in writing.
