Barclays Center to open as largest voting site in Brooklyn
Not a lot has been decided at Barclays Center since the Brooklyn Nets edged the Chicago Bulls on March 8, three days before the COVID-19 pandemic forced the NBA season to pause and shuttered the Downtown arena, which also hosts the New York Islanders and New York Liberty.
That will change come next month.
Nets, Liberty and Barclays Center owner Joseph Tsai will re-open the doors of the arena to serve as a 2020 early voting and Election Day polling site, making the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush the place to be for Brooklynites eager to take part in our nation’s biggest decision.
