In case you needed a reminder about where to flex your civic liberty, you can find your polling place at this link (brings you to Chester County’s website). Polls are open from 7 AM to 8 PM.

♥️ Local Adoptable Pets of the Week
🐶 Meet Addy
If you’ve been searching for the versatile pup who’s perfectly happy on an adventure or just chilling at home, look no further. Addy was rescued from North Carolina and has been working hard on all of her manners since she knows you’re coming to get her. Friendly with other dogs and people, Addy would love to find a new home that is willing to give her the unconditional love she’s sure to return in kind.
🐱 Meet Garth
Party on, Wayne. Garth is ready to be your new feline friend, and he knows he’ll fit just right in at his new forever family. Not much is known about Garth, but I think you’re the one to help him discover what love truly means. Agree? Click below.
