Polls open at 7 a.m. today for the municipal general election. Voters have until 8 p.m. to cast their votes in person or return mail-in ballots to the county office building Downtown.
Voters across Allegheny County will elect mayors and council members, as well as a number of county and statewide judges. Pittsburgh will choose between Democrat Ed Gainey and Republican Tony Moreno to elect a new mayor.

How can I return my mail-in ballot?
Mail-in ballots must be received by the county elections office by 8 p.m. Tuesday — no exceptions. If you put your ballot in the mail today, it will not be counted.
If you still have your ballot, deliver it to the county office building yourself at 542 Forbes Ave. between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. Note: Voters can only deliver their own ballot. Voters with a disability as defined by the ADA can designate somebody else to deliver their ballot using this form.
