Allegheny County mail-in ballots invalid without voter’s declaration

“We had a lot of concern because if the voter doesn’t sign the outer envelope of the ballot, their vote will not count,” said an ACLU.

“We had a lot of concern because if the voter doesn’t sign the outer envelope of the ballot, their vote will not count,” said Sara Rose, deputy legal director.

Dave Voye, manager for Allegheny County’s Elections Division, said less than a dozen out of 180,000 mail-in ballots were missing the voter’s declaration, and that was due to a printing error.

“We were in touch with our printer and we think two envelopes got stuck together. It’s very minimal,” Voye said.

Voye said anyone in possession of an envelope without the voter’s declaration can request another ballot, but it must be mailed in time to be in the Elections Division by 8 p.m. on Election Day.
