REGISTERING TO VOTE

Registering is the first step to voting. You may check your registration status, update your registration, or register for the first time using the resources found below.

Voters that have moved, changed their name, or wish to change their political party affiliation must complete a new voter registration form.

In Pennsylvania, residents must register or update their registration by Monday, April 8, 2024, for the 2024 Primary Election. The registration process can be done online, by mail, or in-person at the County Government Center in Media.

Can I Cancel My Voter Registration?

Yes. Please fill out this Voter Request to Cancel Registration form and return to a Delaware County Voter Service Center, or visit the Pennsylvania Department of State’s How to Update Your Registration web page, if you wish to cancel your registration. We urge voters who are moving out of the County or the State of Pennsylvania to inform the Delaware County Bureau of Elections that you will no longer be a resident of Delaware County to help ensure accurate records.
