CORRECTION: May Primary Election Date in 2025 Borough Calendar

The Pennsylvania Primary Election will take place on May 20, 2025

Dear Yeadon Residents,

Please be advised that the 2025 Yeadon Borough Calendar mailed to all residents several weeks ago contains an error regarding the 2025 Primary Election date. The mailed calendar incorrectly states the date of the Primary Election as May 13; the election actually takes place one week later on Tuesday, May 20th.

We apologize for the oversight.

For up-to-date election data please follow the Delaware County Bureau of Elections calendar at delcopa.gov/vote/calendar.html

Working America to Conduct Door-to-Door Canvassing in Yeadon

Residents of Yeadon,

Please be advised that Working America, a community affiliate of the AFL-CIO, will be conducting a door-to-door organizing drive in the Borough starting on February 25, 2025, and continuing through at least March 2025.

Working America is a not-for-profit labor organization focused on advocacy for issues affecting working families, such as fair wages, healthcare, and job security. Their trained canvassers will be going door-to-door to educate residents and sign up new members. Canvassers can be identified by their official identification badges and red safety vests displaying the Working America name.

The canvassing will take place in the late afternoon and evening, between 3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m., as these are the hours when most residents are home. Courts have affirmed the right of canvassers to operate during these hours, regardless of local curfews (Ohio Citizen Action v. City of Englewood, City of Watseka v. Illinois Public Action Council, New Jersey Citizen Action v. Edison Township).

The Yeadon Police Department has been informed of Working America’s activities to ensure awareness and public safety.
