The Allegheny County Elections
Division has launched a one-stop website
for residents seeking information on the
elections. AlleghenyVotes.com contains
information on the new voting system,
provides information on voter outreach
efforts, and includes instructional videos
and links for additional information on
voter registration, becoming a poll worker
and the county’s elections website.
In early December, the county entered
into a contract with Election Systems
& Software, LLC for voting equipment,
software and services and began receiving
equipment shortly thereafter. To date,
the county has received all 1,650 DS200
precinct scanners and 1,650 ExpressVote
ballot marking devices, along with four
of the eight DS850 high-speed digital
image scanners that were ordered. The
division recently ordered two additional
DS850 scanners.
Public voting system demonstrations
are being held in locations throughout the
county, thanks to partnerships with the
Allegheny County Library Association,
the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, local
shopping malls and other organizations.
While they are still being finalized, the
website contains a list of scheduled
demonstrations that will begin March 15.
As new locations and dates are confirmed,
they will be added to the online calendar.
Voters throughout the county will
be hearing a lot about the new voting
systems starting March 1, when
targeted advertising and outreach will
begin. Residents will see the campaign
through local television, billboards,
movie theaters, print, radio, the internet
and transit.
The county could establish satellite
centers for in-person voting of absentee
and mail-in ballots. Act 77 of 2019, which
contained a number of election reforms,
provides general information on the
initiative that includes a requirement that
locations be in county-owned or county-
leased properties, and that such centers
be located outside of the municipality
in which the county seat is located. For
security reasons, only locations that are
hardwired to the county’s system can be
considered. Elections staff was asked to
report to the board at its next meeting
with recommendations on the use of
satellite centers in advance of the Apr.
28 election.
In addition to updates on
AlleghenyVotes.com and the county’s
elections webpage, constituents can also
receive information related to the election
on the county’s Facebook and Twitter
pages, as well as through Allegheny Alerts.
