Returning Your Pennsylvania Ballot From Overseas
Pennsylvania's instructions do not mention returning a ballot by fax.
The Pennsylvania Department of State tells a military or overseas civilian voter to mail the voted absentee ballot, affirming it was mailed by 11:59 pm on the day before Election Day, and names no fax or email return. Source
A Pennsylvania military or overseas voter can ask for the blank absentee ballot by email, through block 5 of the Federal Post Card Application or by contacting the county election office; otherwise the ballot arrives by mail.
Deadlines
A Pennsylvania military or overseas civilian voter's mailed ballot must reach the county election office by 5 pm on the seventh day after Election Day; a federal voter's ballot must be received by 8 pm on Election Day.
