Polling Places are exempt from gathering limits Order

On Tuesday, Governor Wolf and Secretary of Health Dr. Rachel Levine updated their Orders on indoor and outdoor gathering limits.

One of the pressing questions related to the Orders is the upcoming election and the indoor limit of 25 people.

Information provided by the Wolf Administration on Tuesday outlined the following regarding the election.

“Do the gathering limitations apply to polling places?

No.

Polling places are exempt from the Order. The Department of State as well as county and local officials are working hard to provide a safe and secure voting experience for all Commonwealth citizens. All citizens are encouraged to practice mitigation measures, including social distancing while exercising their right to vote.”
