Few Additional Registrations Expected in Erie
Erie voters are not expected to boost registration numbers ahead of the November general election. Joseph Williams, chief registrar, said registrations remain slow and that servicemen and others with address changes must register by about September 17. Those already registered cannot change party affiliation until after the fall election, and discharged servicemen who voted by military ballot must register if eligible to vote in November. Williams noted roughly 75,000 city and county residents are on the registration books and eligible to vote.
