Get Out and Vote Today in Upper Macungie

Polls are open until 8 p.m.

Today is Election Day. Polls will be open until to 8 p.m.

In Upper Macungie, there's a three-way race for a board of supervisors seat.

Republican Jim Brunnell won his party's nomination for supervisor in May, defeating veteran supervisor Ed Earley.

He's facing Chris Casey, who won the Democratic nomination in May. 

Both men will still have to contend with Earley, who announced a write-in campaign in September.

Voters in Upper Macungie—and the rest of the Parkland School District—will also be asked to vote on a referendum on the proposed construction of a new $13 million community library in Upper Macungie.

On the county-wide front, Democrat Tom Muller and Republican Scott Ott are facing off to become the next Lehigh County Executive.

Upper Macungie voters will also choose between county commissioner candidates: Republican incumbent Percy Dougherty and Democrat Susan Ellis Wild.

There's also a county-wide ballot question, asking voters if future public-private debt issues must get voter approval before they can move ahead.

If you're not sure where to vote, visit the Pennsylvania Department of State website, which has a search engine allowing you to look up your polling place.
