NYC Is Voting on Moving Its Elections to Even Years
New York City voters will decide in November on a consequential ballot measure that could put the city on a path to boosting voter turnout.
Shifting city elections to even-numbered years is proven to increase turnout among eligible voters, especially those from underserved communities.
What the Ballot Proposal Entails
Ballot Proposal 6 proposes amending the City Charter to hold the city’s primary and general elections in even-numbered years, coinciding with presidential elections.
Its approval would give historically underrepresented New Yorkers a stronger voice in their government.
