Philadelphia election officials issued guidance on the upcoming November 3, 2026 election, outlining who is permitted inside polling locations and defining what constitutes illegal intimidation. The guidance also instructs voters on how to report any problems they encounter at the polls.
The officials warned that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and Department of Justice election monitors may be present at voting sites, and clarified the legal boundaries for their activities. This effort is part of a broader attempt by state and local authorities to address questions about the role of federal agencies at voting locations ahead of the general election.
