On Tuesday morning, Election Day, reports began flooding social media of various incidents of voter suppression and irregularities in Pennsylvania. The commonwealth, home to an estimated 12,961,683 people in 2023, is a key swing state, the winner of which will garner 19 electoral votes.
Scott Presler of Early Vote Action has called for those experiencing election issues to report them.
In Martinsburg, an election official went to a line of residents ready to cast their votes and told them, reportedly, that the polling station has the wrong ballot tabulators and the wrong ballots.
Another report stated that while standing in line to vote in Allegheny County, a poll worker told the residents that necessary paperwork for one of the two districts of the voting center was not submitted and that one of the necessary officials hadn’t yet arrived, effectively separating the two districts and only allowing one district to vote.
