Primary Election Information
BALLOT INFORMATION
The Adams County Office of Elections has sample ballots on their website for every precinct in the county. Every precinct, because the ballots are unique to each precinct for the local candidates (school board, township supervisor, auditor, tax collector, etc). This is the Primary Election, so Democrats will only see Democrat or cross-filed Republican candidates on their ballots.
Democratic Headquarters is open every day from noon to 4 pm, and volunteers are available to answer questions from callers and visitors. On Election Day the office will be staffed from 7 am to 8 pm. Please call 717-337-5285 or drop by at 24 Chambersburg Street, where printed copies of candidate information are available, as well as information on the State Judicial candidates.
