New York A05846 amends the election law to provide remedies for disrupted voting times and locations during elections by extending voting periods.
New York A05846 amends the election law to address disruptions in voting times and locations during elections. If early voting or election day voting at one or more polling places is disrupted for more than one hour before polls close, the Board of Elections must extend the voting timeframe. This extension begins from the time the disruption is reported to the board and continues until the disruption ends and polling places reopen, or until the scheduled close of polls, whichever comes first.
