June 2 is the official rescheduled date for the Pennsylvania primary.

But thanks to new laws in the state, early voting is happening now—and thanks to the dangers of gathering in this era of coronavirus, voting by mail may be your best option to both stay safe and have your say.

This is a primary election, so only Philly voters registered as either Democrat or Republican will be allowed to select candidates to face off in the November general election. They will also have the opportunity to elect delegates for the party conventions. For Independents, there is still a chance to vote on two ballot questions.

When the primary election was postponed, the voter registration deadline was also extended. You must now be registered by May 18 to vote in the primary. Not sure you are? Check here, and then take care of business here.

All set? Below you’ll find everything you need to know to vote in the PA primary.
