Section 2650 of the Election Code governs candidates, watchers, and attorneys at sessions of the Return Board. Every candidate is entitled to be present in person or by attorney in fact and to participate in any proceeding before any board where matters that may affect candidacy are being heard. Watchers must be county residents. There is no such requirement for attorneys.
Watchers or attorneys for candidates should be prepared to provide a letter on campaign letterhead signed by the candidate designating the person as their representative. Representatives of parties may participate by presenting a letter on party letterhead signed by a party officer designating the individual as a representative of the party. Information may also be submitted in advance via email at BOE@alleghenycounty.us.
Viewing of the Return Board process is open to everyone, but individuals who are not candidates, candidate representatives, or party representatives will be limited to specific viewing areas.
