HARRISBURG — With Tuesday’s municipal primary election just ahead, Acting Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar is reminding Pennsylvania voters that they can see up-to-the minute results on the Department of State’s election night returns website.
“The public, candidates and the press can find the earliest and most complete picture of how the electorate voted on our election returns site,” Boockvar said in a press release. “We collaborate with all 67 county election offices to consolidate results as soon as they are available.”
Visitors to electionreturns.pa.gov can customize searches, receive timely updates, view results on mobile devices, use a location-based service through the “My County” link to instantly bring up their county’s election returns and connect to each county’s election results website.
The department will post unofficial results on the site as it receives reports from counties after the polls close at 8 p.m. on Election Day.
