If anyone sees any error, please contact me at richardwinger@yahoo.com, or leave a comment. If anyone is aware of any other individual or group that has also compiled this data, please inform me. The author of America Votes, Rhodes Cook, will be compiling this data but not for some time yet. Eventually two federal agencies, the Federal Election Commission and the Clerk of the U.S. House, will compile it, but not for many months yet. I will furnish the state-by-state totals to anyone who asks. UPDATE: figures have been revised to correct a Delaware error. Thanks to Greg Koza for that.

On December 23, the Pennsylvania state elections office released some information about presidential write-ins. The office says there are 6,472 for Evan McMullin; 6,060 for Bernie Sanders; and 302 for John Kasich. The office says in addition there are 37,242 more presidential write-ins. Anyone who wants more information must visit Harrisburg and ask to look at the reports from the counties.

The state office did not break down the write-ins by county, so it isn’t possible at this point to know if all counties reported any write-ins.

Pennsylvania has no write-in declaration of candidacy law, so the state always makes a somewhat arbitrary decision as to which write-ins to tally, similar to the New Hampshire process. It would be desirable if Pennsylvania had a write-in declaration of candidacy law. It is the only populous state that does not have such a law.

Two states are still working on tallying presidential write-ins. Rhode Island will be finished by December 29. The Pennsylvania Elections Department hopes to finish its write-in tally today (December 23).
