ALT Fact-checking PA Election Claims: Pennsylvania’s mail ballots are not “emergency backup ballots.” Requesting and returning a mail ballot will make a voter ineligible to vote by regular ballot at the polls. If an emergency occurs on Election Day that prevents a voter from reporting to the polling place, the voter can apply for an emergency absentee ballot, which can be picked up by the voter or by an authorized representative.
