Voter registration deadline is Friday: How to do it in NYC
Brooklynites should double-check after purging fiasco
The upcoming presidential election has been called one of the most important in decades, and Friday, Oct. 14 is the last day to register to vote.
This deadline is of particular importance to registered voters in Brooklyn, 126,000 of whom were wrongly purged from the voting rolls before the presidential primary, prompting outrage and an audit by Comptroller Scott Stringer. Most have since been returned, but some remain unregistered, perhaps unknowingly.
Your registration may also have been moved to inactive if you did not vote in the last two federal elections, or if you moved and didn’t update your address with the BOE.
