Allegheny County is offering plenty of options to get your ballot submitted before Nov. 3. The Elections Division of Allegheny County <https://www.alleghenycounty.us/elections/index.aspx> is expanding hours for its office and lobby, starting on October 26. There, voters can apply and receive their mail-in or absentee ballot, or return their completed ballot. There will also be additional election offices open starting this coming weekend. “It’s the mail-in/absentee ballot process, but all in one place/time,” explains Allegheny County Communications Director Amie Downs. “Voters will apply, elections will process and issue a ballot if the voter is eligible, and the voter can complete the ballot, seal it in the envelopes and return it there in one shot.” For a complete statewide list of ballot drop boxes and dropoff sites, and satellite county election offices, go here. <https://www.votespa.com/Voting-in-PA/Pages/Return-Ballot.aspx> *The hours for the Allegheny County Elections Office, at 542 Forbes Avenue, 6th floor, Downtown Pittsburgh, are:* Tues.-Fri.
