Many Poll Sites Relocated Due To Sandy’s Fury

As we well know by now, Hurricane Sandy didn’t just decimate homes and businesses, but also schools and other institutions that double as polling stations on Election Day. And with damage still present, and power outages in many locations, poll locations are being moved for many local voters.

You can find the latest poll site relocations here.You can also text “NYCVOTES” to 877877, or call (855) NYS-SANDY. If you have any other questions, call (866) VOTE-NYC.

Additionally, Governor Andrew Cuomo has signed an executive order permitting victims of Hurricane Sandy to vote by paper affidavit at any poll site. However, we encourage you to attempt to try to get to your relocated poll site , as some affidavits may not be counted.

Polling sites will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
