§ 1503. Change of enrollment of political party.
   By the deadline for registration, a registered elector who
desires to change the enrollment of political designation or
who, although registered, has not previously enrolled as a
member of a party may appear before a commissioner, registrar
or clerk or may submit an application by mail under section
1324 (relating to application by mail) and state in a signed
writing the political party in which the registered elector
desires to be enrolled. If the signature of the elector is
verified by comparison with the registered elector's signature
as it appears on file with the commission, the commissioner,
registrar or clerk shall make the change in its registration
records. If supported by other evidence of identity, a mark may
be made in lieu of a signature by a registered elector who is
unable to write. The mark must be made in the presence of a
witness who must sign the registration application.
