    • We do not recommend absentee or voting by mail-in ballot in New York when Early Voting or Election Day voting at the polls is a possibility. Absentee and mail ballots have very specific instructions and can be “spoiled” if not filled out correctly.

      To vote by mail or absentee in New York seek help from a Studentvote.Info volunteer by emailing contact@studentvote.info
    • Detailed instructions for voting by mail from the New York Elections Board are included located here and please note these tips.
       
      • "Early Mail Ballots" are available to any voters. Absentee ballots are only available if the voter is or will be away from the county on Election Day or unable to vote at the polls for a list of specific reasons.
      • Be sure you fill out the inner envelope EXACTLY correctly.
      • Remember to sign and date the inner security envelope.
      • Return a mail or absentee ballot no later than Tues Nov 5, 2024 (postmarked). The ballot must be received no later than Nov 12, 2024 to count.
      • Mail ballots may also be dropped off at a County Board of Elections office, at an Early Voting polling location or at an Election Day polling location.
