Happy Election Day! 🗳️
After months of campaigning and millions spent on ads across the nation — but especially in Southwestern Pennsylvania ([link removed]) — today in-person voters will make their choices for president and more as this unpredictable election season inches toward its end. Allegheny County and Pennsylvania are crucial places — as seen through Donald Trump's and Kamala Harris' decisions to hold rallies in the Pittsburgh region on Nov. 4 ([link removed]) — in determining the presidential election's results.
If you are voting today, be sure to consult PublicSource's nonpartisan voter guide ([link removed]) , which will help you learn who is on your ballot. If you know someone in Allegheny ([link removed]) , Armstrong ([link removed]) , Beaver ([link removed]) , Butler ([link removed]) , Fayette ([link removed]) , Lawrence ([link removed]) , Washington ([link removed]) or Westmoreland
([link removed]) counties who could benefit from county-specific ballot guides, forward this email to them ([link removed]) .
Throughout the day, PublicSource will answer your questions like how to vote in person ([link removed]) and what to do if you still have a mail-in ballot ([link removed]) . We will also have reporters and photographers dispatched throughout the region giving you updates on what is happening on the ground ([link removed]) in our battleground area in the nation's largest swing state.
In the late afternoon, PublicSource's election results page, made possible by the Associated Press, will go live. There, you will be able to see real-time results as they roll in starting around 8 p.m. for races including president, U.S. Senate and House, Pennsylvania General Assembly and state row offices. Check back for that story on our website later, and be sure to bookmark it. You can also follow along with our coverage on Facebook ([link removed]) , Twitter ([link removed]) and Instagram ([link removed]) .
It is important to note that votes will almost certainly not be fully tabulated by the end of today. In Pennsylvania, counties may report results at varying speeds ([link removed]) .
Since February, PublicSource has published stories showcasing how Pittsburgh has navigated trust and choice in this contentious election season through our Democracy and Doubt series ([link removed]) . PublicSource will continue to bring you stories and analysis now and well after the conclusion of this election.
