You Can Now Register to Vote Online in Pa

If you want to vote in November, it is now possible to register online in Pennsylvania. This was one of Governor Tom Wolf's campaign promises. The Keystone State is the 23rd to take advantage of the Internet, which confirms identity through examination of driver licenses. In addition to registering, the Pa. Online Voter Registration site can be used to update addresses, names and party affiliation.

The last day to register to vote for this November's election is October 5.

    It's early yet....but I knew there would be at least ONE IDIOT (8:29am) to comment that On-Line Registration would cause "ineligible people to register".....The Right Wing LOVES to tout that inaccurate propaganda to prevent voting.

    One of the arguments in favor of voter ID is that people have to show ID for even the most routine of transactions. But we also know that people can conduct fairly sophisticated transactions on the Internet, including banking, online purchases and taxes. There is no reason why people should be barred from registering to vote online.

    Voter fraud does NOT occur "everywhere". Voter fraud is extremely rare. I'm delighted to see on-line voter registration. Now, if we could have early voting, or have Election Day on a weekend, I be even happier.

    We need to encourage voter participation, not suppress it.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
