Pennsylvania is rolling out a redesigned ballot for the upcoming general election, aimed at minimizing voter errors and rejected ballots. The new design features clearer instructions, a yellow secrecy sleeve, and potential hole punches in envelopes to help identify missing components.
Voters in the key battleground of Pennsylvania may notice their ballots look different this year, as the state prepares to deploy a new design in the general election for the first time this year that aims to reduce the number of rejected votes .
In a critical swing state typically decided by tight margins — Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump by just 81,000 in Pennsylvania in 2020 — rejected ballots can fundamentally shape a race’s outcome. While Pennsylvania created no-excuse mail voting in 2019 with bipartisan support, the process wasn't enacted until the early days of the Covid pandemic in 2020, when Trump baselessly seized on mail voting as rife with fraud.
