One of the best friends, who works in local government and community affairs, decided to take the knowledge she’s acquired and create an accurate and easy-to-understand guide explaining absentee voting. This way, every one of our voices can be heard in the crucial, upcoming United States election on November 3rd.

Since the best friends and I are New Yorkers, the following guide will only be applicable for New Yorkers, specifically for NYC. The absentee voting process works differently outside of NYC, i.e. for Long Island and Upstate New York.

If you are in NYC, or know someone who lives in NYC, and may want some clarification on how to vote efficiently and safely this upcoming election, please feel free to use or pass on the following guide.

If you have any questions about this guide, want guides for Long Island or Upstate New York absentee voting processes, or would like informative guides on other political topics, let me know in the comments and I will pass it along to the best friend.

I’m sharing my platform with the best friend because I believe we all need to be informed about the system we live in and do our part in making sure we make this world as fair and as representative of our values as possible. So, I leave you all with one final message: Vote. Wear a mask. Thank you.
