This morning, Chester County informed the Department of State of the error in printing of their election books. We are in contact with the county to help them address this quickly — in the meantime, unaffiliated voters can still vote safely and securely via provisional ballot at their polling place.
Chester County Voter Services@ChescoVoterSvcs

Chester County Voter Services has reported that the poll books at all precincts currently do not include the names of third-party voters. Voter Services is in the process of sending supplemental poll books to all polling locations. 1/2
