Letter from the Chairwoman
October 9, 2023
Dear Republican Voter,
No doubt that concern for the direction of our state and nation has to be the number one motivator for voters in the November 2023 and 2024 elections. Unmitigated institutional and political corruption has threatened and undermined the constitutional rights of Americans from all walks of life in our society, to the point that negligent policies now threaten our very safety. Thomas Jefferson, drafter of the Declaration of Independence, founding father, and third President of the United States, stated, “The price of liberty is eternal vigilance.” His statement calls us to attention, 247 years later, to fulfill our duty to watch over and protect our liberties in our first line of defense – our vote.
For this reason, I am encouraging every citizen of voting age in Columbia County to vote this Nov. 7th – whether in person at your local precinct OR by mail-in ballot if you find it convenient or are unable to make it to the polls.
You may complete the mail-in ballot application enclosed, or you may complete the ONLINE application at https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov, and select “Mail-in Ballot Application.” You will receive your ballot by mail at your registered address. Complete your ballot and return it: 1) by mail at least 10 days before election day, 2) drop off at the Columbia County elections office at 11 West Main Street, Bloomsburg before or on Election Day, OR 3) bring it to your polling place (where you vote) no later than 8 PM on Election Day, Nov. 7th, 2023.
To register to vote, go to https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov/pages/VoterRegistrationApplication.aspx to complete your registration, or ask for an application at your local library or county elections office. Registration deadline is Oct. 23, 2023. Not sure if you’re registered? Go to https://www.pavoterservices.pa.gov/pages/voterregistrationstatus.aspx to check your voter registration status.
