Those with a Pennsylvania driver’s license or PennDOT ID card can complete registration online. Signatures on file at PennDOT will be sent to your county voter registration office and become part of your voter record.

If you do not provide a PennDOT number or if PennDOT cannot verify the information you enter on the form, you must provide a signature to complete the voter registration process. You have three options:

  • Upload a digital image of your signature to submit with the voter registration application form. Take a photograph of your signature in blue or black ink on white paper.
  • Request a signature form from the Department of State. Sign the form and mail it to your county voter registration office.
  • Print, sign, and mail the voter registration application to your county voter registration office.

Hard copy registration forms are also available to download here. Once the hard copy form is complete, submit it to your county's voter registration office either by dropping it off or mailing it in. Mailed forms must be received by Monday.

If you are on active duty in the military, or you are a hospitalized or bedridden veteran, you can register at any time. Details on military voting are available online here.

If you are registering for the first time, or you will be voting for the first time in a precinct, you will have to show an approved form of ID at the polls the first time you vote.

Contact the Pennsylvania Department of State at 1-877-868-3772 with questions about voter registration.
