How to Vote in Philly's Ballot Box
Submitted by Daniel Hunter on Sun, 05/13/2007 - 8:08pm.
On Election Day (Tuesday, May 15th), every Philadelphian will have an opportunity to vote on whether to keep casinos 1500 feet from schools, places of worship, parks and homes. But it won't be in the voting booth.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court placed an injunction on the city removing Question #1 from the ballot, so we've created our own citizens' election process. We're giving Philadelphia three ways to vote on Tuesday, May 15th:
- securely online at www.PhillysBallotBox.org; or
- via voter hotline at 215-925-6380; or
- at a polling place near you (visit www.PhillysBallotBox.org to find the closest voting location)
Legislation introduced in City Council is awaiting the result of the citizens election. And at least one ballot box has been placed in every state representative's district, along with other high-traffic locations throughout the city, to let them know what their constituency wants.
