Fayette County Board of Elections addresses issues with voter check-ins at polling locations
Voters unable to cast ballot advised to return
The Fayette County Board of Elections has been advised by the Pennsylvania Department of State that the Department of State inadvertently transferred the 2024 voter file to be downloaded for the electronic pollbooks in Fayette County instead of the 2025 file. All Fayette County precincts have been instructed to switch to their backup paper pollbooks at this time.
Anyone who encountered this error and was unable to vote, please return to the precinct to cast a ballot. Any provisional ballot cast because of this error will be counted.
It was not immediately clear how many voters were impacted.
