What you need to know about voting by mail in New York’s upcoming November 3 general election:
TL;DR: There have been no changes to how New Yorkers vote by mail.
There are no special requirements, and you don’t need an excuse. You just need to be registered and ready to vote.
Only request a mail ballot if you plan to use it. By law, you must vote with an affidavit ballot at your poll site if you request a mail ballot but choose to vote in person instead.
If you requested a mail ballot and prefer not to mail it, you can drop it off in person in a drop box at an open poll site.
For the latest information on mail-in voting, visit vote.nyc/RequestBallot or contact the NYC Board of Elections.
