To vote in New York, one must be a United States citizen who will be 18 years old by the date of the next election. Also, a voter must have been a resident of his or her state, county, city, or village for at least 30 days prior to the election. A voter can request a registration application in person at the county board of election or any New York state agency-based voter registration center. Forms are also available by mail, by telephone, or online.
If returned by mail, a registration form must be postmarked at least 25 days prior to the election. The form must then be received by election officials at least 20 days before the election. A registration done in person must be completed at least 25 days prior to the election, as well.
