Montgomery County, Pennsylvania announced Friday the launch of the swing state’s “first Voter Services Mobile Satellite Office,” a customized van from which residents can register to vote and return completed ballots, among other things.
A resolution including a contract award for a “voter services” van was approved 2-1 in August by the board of county commissioners’ Democrat majority. Last week, the “mobile satellite office” made its first public appearance at a local fall festival, the city says. But the board’s Thomas DiBello, the Republican who did not vote for the van, tells The Federalist he does not support this mobile get-out-the-vote effort in the community ahead of next month’s election.

“No appointment is needed to visit these locations,” the county website says.
This means citizens could register to vote, update their registration, request a mail-in ballot, and return their completed ballot at the van or at a regular satellite office in the few weeks left before Election Day.
The county is also allowing voters who mailed in ballots without properly marking the exterior envelope with a signature and date, to cure their ballot from the van so the vote can be counted, DiBello confirmed to The Federalist.

Some counties interpret this law to prohibit a ballot curing period, and others allow the practice. Secretary of State Al Schmidt earned criticism for telling counties to flag ballots in need of curing so voters will be notified to come in and make changes to them. […]
