The Elections Division today announced that it will be offering expanded hours for its office and the lobby for voters to apply for and receive their mail-in or absentee ballot, or to return their completed ballot. This is in addition to the additional election offices open this coming weekend, October 23 and 24, throughout the county. 

 

Ballot return and in-person application for mail-in and absentee ballots remain open this coming weekend. 

On Election Day
All 1,323 polling places will be open on Election Days. Hours are from 7 AM to 8 PM and anyone in line at 8 PM will be allowed to vote. Voters are asked to wear a face covering in compliance with the state order. Those who arrive without a face covering will be offered one.

For Individuals & Families
Walk-up and drive-through distribution will be available to individuals and families for the duration of the event. Vehicles should be instructed to pull up to the Schenley Drive curb behind the plaza tent, where parking spaces are reserved for loading. Volunteers will assist in loading meal kits into vehicles. Be advised that meal kits are somewhat bulky; those without a vehicle should expect to carry only one kit at a time if possible, or use a pulled-cart for transit. Signs will be clearly marked for onsite walk-up and drive-through food distribution. 

 
All who attend are asked to wear a face covering, practice physical distancing and depart after receiving their meal kit – following CDC guidelines – to ensure a safe, effective distribution event. 

 

In addition we are seeking volunteers for the food distribution event in Oakland! Volunteers are needed to: Unload, setup, and breakdown distribution site, assist in loading meal kits in vehicles, help with directional flow of individuals and vehicles, clean and organize site. Volunteer shifts are 1pm-4pm and 4pm-7pm. Pitt in Action shirts and bottled water will be provided. Volunteers will be expected to wear a face covering and follow all CDC guidelines.
