Several Franklin County Precincts Changing Locations Ahead Of November Election
CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. – Several adjustments have been made to local voting precincts ahead of the Nov. 5 Presidential Election.
Some voters in Chambersburg Borough may be voting in new precincts in the November election. These changes stem from the borough’s recent reapportionment of its ward boundaries to reflect census data on the borough’s current population. Voters who are impacted and moved to other districts will receive a new voter registration card in the mail as well as a notice notifying them of their new polling location. The Borough of Chambersburg will also include information on this redistricting project in its October utility bill mailing.
In addition to the redistricting in Chambersburg, two other Franklin County polling locations have permanently moved to new homes. The Hamilton 2 polling place is now at the Christian Life Church at 1400 Warm Spring Road, Chambersburg. Voters in the Metal 2 precinct will now vote at Metal Township Fire and Ambulance located at 10862 Path Valley Road, Fannettsburg.
Finally, voters in the Greene 4 precinct will be voting at St. Paul Lutheran Church at 44 E. Main St., Fayetteville, for the Nov. 5 election. The county anticipates voting will return to the Fayetteville Vol. Fire Dept. in 2025.
Any voter affected by a change in precincts will receive a new voter registration card in the mail before the election. Voters who are voting in a new precinct for the first time may be asked to show ID at their new polling location; this is the only time voters will be asked to show ID. For a list of approved forms of ID, visit the Department of State website, www.vote.pa.gov.
Voters who have questions regarding changes to their polling location can call the Franklin County Voter Registration Office at 717-261-3886. Additional election and voter registration information is available on the Franklin County website, www.franklincountypa.gov.
