VOTING BY PROVISIONAL BALLOT
Pennsylvania:
If you changed your mind about voting by mail in Pennsylvania, or there was a problem with your mail-in vote, you can go to a polling place to cast a ballot.
Your mail-in ballot will be voided so you can vote on the machine in-person. If you don't take your mail-in ballot with you, you can still vote at the polls but with a provisional ballot, essentially a paper ballot.
If you are a registered voter but your eligibility to vote at your polling place is uncertain, you have the right to vote with a provisional ballot.
