#ChesterCountyPa #Elections #ChesterCounty

Attention in-person voters in #ChesterCountyPa, there has been a big hiccup for INDEPENDENT voters.

Independent voters were NOT added to the rolls.

To vote as an independent, you will need to vote provisionally.

From what I heard in informal conversations at my local polling site (667 Upper Uwchlan 3), the County is working to get enough provisional ballots to all county polling sites.
