Registering to Vote through the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)

You may apply for voter registration when you apply for or renew a drivers license, which can serve as an application for voter registration or an update to a previous voter registration. Ask about it at your local DMV.

You can apply for voter registration at the Department of Public Welfare, Health, Labor, and Industry, the County Clerk of Orphans Court, and all armed forces recruitment centers. All forms submitted at these agencies are forwarded to proper voter registration commissions.
