Lafayette Votes and Northampton County Elections Office Pop Up Voter Services Event

Lafayette Votes will be hosting Northampton County Elections Office in Farinon College Center for a “ballot on demand” pop up event on April 30th from 11AM - 2PM. Students, faculty, staff and members of the public living in Northampton County may register to vote, apply for an absentee ballot, or complete a ballot on demand ahead of the May 19th primary in Farinon College Center on April 30. It’s easy! 

• Anyone registered in Northampton County may come to Farinon on Thursday, 4/30, between 11am and 2pm and request an absentee ballot for their district. 

• Elections staff will print it out for you. You can fill out your ballot and deposit it in a ballot box on site in Farinon, or take it with you to mail in later.

• Those eligible to register to vote in Northampton County who haven’t yet registered can even register AND vote the same day! 

Farinon Center is the only location in Easton that will have a ballot on demand event this primary season. Take advantage of this exciting opportunity to select candidates for the midterm election in November 2026!

The pop up voter services initiative is intended to expand access for voters facing transportation or scheduling barriers, increase community engagement, and also to reduce congestion at the Elections Office and permanent drop box locations. The events function as a temporary extension of the Elections Office, allowing voters to:
• Register to vote (deadline May 4)
• Apply for a mail-in or absentee ballot
• Receive and complete a ballot on demand
• Return their ballot securely on site or via the existing dropboxes
All ballots issued and returned through these events will be handled in the same manner as standard absentee and mail-in ballots and will not be opened or counted until Election Day, consistent with Pennsylvania law.
Events at each location will be held for one day for a limited period of time and staffed by the trained Elections Division personnel from the Elections Office. All ballot handling will follow existing chain-of-custody procedures, with a secure, locked, and continuously monitored mobile drop box, and with ballot collection coordinated with the Sheriff’s Department (consistent with County drop box operations). “The events are designed to build on the existing election processes, not replace them, by bringing services directly into the communities we serve,” said Chris Commini, Northampton County Elections Registrar.
