Securing Your Vote: Business Briefing on PA Election Operations with Acting Secretary of the Commonwealth Leigh Chapman
On September 7th, Acting Secretary of the Commonwealth Leigh Chapman will brief PA's business community on her department's efforts for November 2022, and how we can maximize the engagement of employees, customers, and community members in the next election.
