The Bucks County Board of Elections has approved several polling place relocations ahead of the upcoming spring primary.

The board, which is chaired by Court of Common Pleas Judge Jordan Yeager, finalized the changes during a vote late last month. Joining Yeager on the board are Vice Chairperson Gene DiGirolamo, a Republican commissioner, and Democratic Commissioner Diane Ellis-Marseglia.

Commissioner Bob Harvie, a Democrat, is not serving on the board during this election cycle. He is currently a candidate for Congress.

Voters in Solebury Township’s Lower 1 and Lower 2 districts are also moving to a new location. Voting will move from the New Hope Solebury Lower Elementary School at 3020 Sugan Road to Thompson Memorial Presbyterian Church at 1680 Aquetong Road.

The move marks a return to the church, which had previously hosted the districts before a temporary relocation was required due to renovations at the house of worship.

The board also authorized polling place adjustments in several other areas of the county, including New Britain Township, Northampton Township, Middletown Township, and Warminster Township
