Voting early and by mail: What you need to know
Registered voters are now allowed to obtain early mail voting ballots by applying to the city Board of Elections, thanks to the New York Early Mail Voter Act.
All registered voters are eligible to apply for an early mail ballot.
There are several ways to apply for the early voting ballot: Use the online Ballot Request Application portal, go in person to your local county Board of Elections, or allow another person to deliver the application in person to the local county Board of Elections. For voters with a print disability, apply by using the online Accessible Ballot Application.
Applications submitted by mail need to be received by your county Board of Elections no later than 10 days before the election for a voter to be eligible to vote in the primary election.
