Residents who want to vote in the May 20 primary election that they must be registered by Monday. Registered voters who have moved or changed their name or party affiliation must also notify the Washington County elections office by Monday. Individuals must be registered in a political party in order to vote in that party’s primary.

Governor, half of the State Senate and the entire state House of Representatives, plus Republican and Democratic state committees and precinct-level committee members are the offices on the ballot this spring.

Individuals can apply in person during regular business hours of 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Courthouse Square Office Building, West Beau Street, Washington. The office will be closed Friday. The elections office will remain open until 5 p.m. Monday to accept hand-delivered voter registration forms.

Registration-by-mail forms may also be used to register or to change name, address or party affiliation. These forms are available at Armed Service Recruitment Centers, Area Agencies on Aging, as well as several branches of the U.S. Postal Service and state, county and municipal government offices. Registration-by-mail forms must be postmarked by Monday to be processed for the May 20 primary. A registration form may also be obtained by visiting Votes PA and following the quick link to “Register to Vote.”
