  • October 27th - Last day to apply for a mail-in or civilian absentee ballot. Check the status of your mail-in or absentee ballot here.
  • November 3rd – Election Day (polls open 7am - 8pm)
  • November 6th - Last day for County Boards of Elections to receive mail-in and civilian absentee ballots postmarked before November 3rd (please don't wait, return your ballot to a drop box TODAY).

  • November 10th - Last day for County Boards of Elections to receive military and overseas ballots postmarked before November 3rd.
How to Vote In-Person
  1. Check your registration status. You must be registered by October 19th to vote in this election.
  2. Get prepared to vote. Wear a mask, bring your own pen, and bring an ID if it's your first time voting at your polling location (note: if the physical location of your polling place has changed, but your home address has not, you do not need an ID).
  3. Go to your polling location! Polls are open from 7am to 8pm. All voters in line by 8pm can vote in the election.
Polling Places:
045 Caln 1 Municipal Bldg, 253 Municipal Dr., Thorndale (no change)
050 Caln 2 Coatesville Area High School, 1445 E. Lincoln Highway, Coatesville (no change)
053 Caln 3 Coatesville Area School District, 3030 Cg Zinn Rd. Thorndale (previously Caln Elementary)
054 Caln 4 Coatesville Area High School, 1445 E. Lincoln Highway, Coatesville​ (previously St. Martha's Manor)


To vote in person if you've already applied for a mail-in ballot:
If you change your mind and want to vote in person after being approved for a mail in ballot you can bring your ballot and the envelopes to the polls with you. You will need to give your ballot and envelopes to a poll worker at your designated polling location and they will void it for you; enabling you to vote in person. The poll workers will have access to look up mail-in ballot requests, so if you forget to bring your mail-in ballot & envelopes with you so that it can be voided, you will be given a provisional ballot to complete at your polling location. This ballot will only be counted once we verify that your mail-in ballot has not been received by the Election Board.
THE DEADLINE TO REQUEST A MAIL-IN BALLOT HAS PASSED - RETURN YOUR BALLOT TO A DROP BOX ASAP (by 8PM on Election Day-Nov. 3) Ballots mailed back after this point may not arrive in time to be counted.
How to Vote By Mail
  1. Apply for a mail-in ballot online, by mail, or in-person at Chester County Voter Services.
  2. Once you are approved, Chester County Board of Elections will mail you your mail-in ballot. (You can check the status of your request here. Note that ballots are expected to be mailed out beginning the end of September)
  3. COMPLETE YOUR BALLOT, following ALL instructions! Failure to follow instructions may cause your ballot to be thrown out! Place your ballot in the secrecy envelope and then put the secrecy envelope into the official envelope. Be sure to sign the declaration, or your ballot may not count.
  4. Turn in your ballot by mail, at a secure drop box or by handing it in at your County's Board of Elections. To be sure your vote is counted, return your ballot as soon as possible (by election day is a good benchmark - the actual deadline may be later, pending court rulings).
    1. Secure Drop Box Locations will be located at Chester County libraries. They will be available beginning October 13th. The closest options to Caln are:
      1. Downingtown Library, 122 Wallace Avenue, Downingtown - Hours: M-F 9:00AM-7:00PM, Sat & Sun 10:00AM - 2:00PM
      2. Coatesville Area Public Library, 501 E Lincoln Highway, Coatesville - Hours: M-F 9:00AM-7:00PM, Sat & Sun 10:00AM - 2:00PM
    2. You may ONLY return your own ballot to a drop box, you CANNOT return a ballot for anyone else.
  5. Check the status of your mail-in ballot to ensure that it has been received and counted. You can also see when your ballot has been mailed to you (mailing should begin by the end of September).
