The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office and the Montgomery County Detective Bureau have put measures in place, as they do for every election, to make sure the upcoming election on April 23, 2024, is fair and safe, including an Election Tip Line of 610-292-2024 to report any suspicious activity around the ballot drop boxes or on Election Day.

Anyone who sees someone attempting to break into the ballot drop boxes, delivering multiple ballots to the boxes, damaging the boxes or otherwise doing something suspicious or criminal is asked to immediately call the Election Tip Line of 610-292-2024.

“Today I want to reassure Montgomery County residents that we will use all means to make certain we have a safe, secure and valid election here in Montgomery County, for both in-person voting on Election Day and for voting by dropping off completed paper ballots,” said District Attorney Kevin R. Steele. “If the facts and evidence warrant it, we will prosecute anyone who attempts to interfere with this election.”

The 12 secure ballot drop box locations spread throughout Montgomery County are available to drop off ballots through 8 p.m., April 23. All ballot drop box locations are under video surveillance. They are located in Cheltenham, Lansdale, Lower Merion, Norristown (two locations), Pottstown, Royersford, Skippack, Upper Dublin, Upper Frederick, Upper Merion and Upper Moreland. Addresses for secure drop boxes, as well as voting instructions, can be found on the county’s website at https://www.montgomerycountypa.gov/3587/Secure-Ballot-Drop-Box-Locations.

On Election Day, a team of prosecutors and detectives will be available for referral and to respond to any complaints. No irregularities are expected to occur with the election; however, the team will be ready to assist in protecting the integrity of our electoral system as well as protect individuals working at voting locations.

First Assistant Ed McCann Jr., Assistant District Attorney Jediah Grobstein and Montgomery County Detectives will work with state, county and local law enforcement, as well as other government officials, to protect access to and the integrity of the April 23rd primary election. Reported violations of election laws will be investigated, and if appropriate, prosecuted.

Any potential problems on election day, should be reported by calling the Election Tip Line at 610-292-2024, emailing [email protected] or by calling the County Radio Room at 610-275-1222.
