Primary Election Early Voting

Allegheny County will host ballot return sites for the upcoming Primary Election. Ballot return sites are staffed locations where registered voters who received a mail-in or absentee ballot can return ballots in person, directly to a county employee.

Allegheny County will also offer satellite locations.  At satellite locations, registered voters can request a mail-in ballot, complete, and return it, all in one place (commonly referred to “over-the-counter” voting). Once the deadline to apply for a mail-in or absentee ballot has passed, voters may only return ballots, they can no longer request one on-site.

The County Office Building will be open Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm for over-the-counter voting and ballot return services beginning Monday, April 28, 2025.

Voters may only return their own ballot unless they have completed authorization forms to return a ballot on behalf of someone who physically is unable to do so. For individuals requiring assistance in voting or returning a ballot, contact the Elections Division at 412-350-4500.
