"Help! 10 Thousand PA Voters Just Had Their Poll Location Changed and Don't Know It!"

The Republican Lackawanna Board of Elections just changed the voting locations of 21 precincts in the Scranton, PA area.

10 to 15 Thousand PA voters have to go to a new location in order to vote at all. And they don't know this.

The Board is sending a notice, tomorrow, but it's not even printed yet. And who knows if it'll get there or even be read.

Huge GOTV need in an essential state.

You can make a crucial diffence just by standing there at the old poll locations and convincing surprised and confused voters it's worth the drive to the new one.

The old locations will be closed. No one will be there to take provisional ballots or even offer guidance. The Voters HAVE TO GO to the new places in order to vote. And few may even know it.

If you can help on NOV 2 please email AlanEGross@aol.com or Calyndha@aol.com

Put "PA POLL GOTV" in your subject line.

And thanks for helping keep PA Blue!

People with maps showing the correct info
should be placed at each of the old polling places.

Re: People with maps showing the correct info
Absolutely. And there will be if they get enough volunteers. The polls are open 7am to 8pm there so it's a lot of coverage needed.

And the local media seems yawningly uninterested in the story. Even though there is ad getting placed to run Saturday.
