Important information for Independent Voters (and others interested in questions that will be on the Primary Ballot in May)
by janet jai 22 Apr '21

22 Apr '21

Hi, Neighbors, There are a number of Very Important ballot/referendum questions on the Primary election ballot on May 18: four statewide ballot issues and two local (Allegheny County and Pittsburgh). Independents can vote on these questions in the Primary even though they can’t vote for Democratic or Republican candidates then. Like other voters, Independents can vote either in-person or using mail-in ballots. Here are a couple of nonpartisan sources of information about the ballot/referendum questions: The following links are from Allegheny Votes, an e-newsletter sent out by Allegheny County Elections. The links go to “plain English” explanations of the ballot questions: "All voters, regardless of party, may vote in the primary on referendum questions. For this election, there are four statewide referendums <https://alleghenycounty25048.lt.acemlnb.com/Prod/link-tracker?redirectUrl=a…>, a countywide referendum <https://alleghenycounty25048.lt.acemlnb.com/Prod/link-tracker?redirectUrl=a…>, and three municipal referendums: Bethel Park <https://alleghenycounty25048.lt.acemlnb.com/Prod/link-tracker?redirectUrl=h…>, Crescent <https://alleghenycounty25048.lt.acemlnb.com/Prod/link-tracker?redirectUrl=a…> and Pittsburgh <https://alleghenycounty25048.lt.acemlnb.com/Prod/link-tracker?redirectUrl=a…>.” Here is Ruth Quint of the nonpartisan League of Women Voters of Greater Pittsburgh being interviewed by Jon Delano of KDKA about the ballot questions: https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2021/04/14/multiple-ballot-questions-face-v… <https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2021/04/14/multiple-ballot-questions-face-v…> More detailed nonpartisan information about the ballot questions, including arguments for and against, can be found at https://www.vote411.org <https://www.vote411.org/>, a website maintained by the League of Women Voters. (Note: I am a member of the League of Women Voters of Greater Pittsburgh.) Please feel free to pass this important information on to others who may not live in Highland Park.
