[NFBP-Talk] The Deadline Is Here for Voting in the May 2021 Primary Election

[Joseph Drenth]

Hello everyone,
 
Request your electronic ballot today for the May primary election! Tomorrow
(May 11) at 5PM is the deadline to request an electronic ballot for the May
2021 primary election, so please do not wait any longer if you have not
already requested yours. We need to show Pennsylvania's Department of State
that blind and visually-impaired constituents will use the electronic voting
options, otherwise these opportunities might go away. 
 
To request your electronic ballot, there are two steps you need to take:
 
First, complete the form on the following web page to request a mail-in
ballot. This is the same form everyone else uses to request a mail-in ballot
and it is a requirement before you can request your accessible ballot:
https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov/OnlineAbsenteeApplication/#/OnlineAbsente
eBegin
 
Second, you need to request the accessible version of the mail-in ballot by
completing the form on the following web page:
https://expressforms.pa.gov/apps/pa/DOS/Remote-Access-Ballot-Request
 
You will then hear back via email when your requests have been processed and
accepted. One of the emails will include the link you can use to
electronically complete your accessible mail-in ballot. Once completed, you
will need to print it and place it in the two envelopes sent to you by your
county's board of elections.
 
To read about all of the voting options available to you, please visit the
following web page:

If you have any questions, please let us know by emailing vote at nfbp.org

Thanks,
Joe
