It’s election day in Pittsburgh — but don’t expect campus polling stations to be as crowded as last year’s election.

Mayor Bill Peduto is running unopposed after winning the Democratic primary in May. And Oakland residents won’t have any decision to make on their city council member — incumbent Dan Gilman is also running unopposed. But eager voters, don’t be remiss — your ballot will be filled with two amendment questions and numerous judgeship positions.

Here’s a quick rundown of who and what you’ll be voting for:

Homestead Exclusion Amendment Ballot

Voting ‘yes’ to this ballot question gives the General Assembly the right to pass a law allowing local taxing authorities to exempt the entire value of each homestead, or primary dwelling, from property taxes — essentially eliminating property taxes. Voting ‘no’ does not allow the General Assembly to grant local taxing authorities this ability.

Proponents of the measure say this will eliminate the possibility of individuals to be displaced from their homes because they are unable to afford property taxes.

Opponents argue the loss of income for the tax jurisdiction will have to be made up with additional taxes added to other sectors. Opponents also argue the measure could negatively affect local control and execution of education.

Yes – For the Measure

No – Against the Measure

Pittsburgh Home Rule Charter Amendment

City of Pittsburgh employees can currently only hold one compensated job with the city — with certain established exceptions. Voting ‘yes’ to this measure would add part-time public school athletic coaching and part-time teaching at public institutions of higher education as exceptions — allowing city employees to be paid for both positions.

Yes — For the Measure

No — Against the Measure
