Copy of SmOnLgRCReadyRef... Tuesday, May 26, 2009 09:47 page 17 Composite Voting

You Must Be Registered To Vote You may register if you are 18 years of age by Election Day and a resi- dent of the County for at least 30 days prior to the Election and a citizen of the United States.

How Do I Register/Re-Register? You can obtain a registration form from your County Board of Elec- tions, or online. Complete and return it by mail. You can also register by filling out the form at the Board of Elections, Post Office, DMV, etc.

When Is It Necessary That I Register/Re-Register? • If you are not registered. • If you have moved to a new address (even next door) since your last vote.

How Do I Become Eligible To Vote In Primary Elections? You must be enrolled with one of the recognized parties (Democratic, Republican, Conservative, Working Families, Independence, etc.) and there must be a primary Election in that party. (You can only vote in the Party in which you are enrolled.)

How Do I Indicate My Party Enrollment? Use the same form used for registration/re-registration. If you are changing your party, the change will not take effect until after the next November General Election.

Where Do I Vote? Each year, you should receive a postcard from the Board of Elections. Keep this for future reference. The card is to check if your address as shown is correct. It also shows the location where you vote. If your voting location does change, the card will clearly indicate the new lo- cation where you are to vote. If in doubt call the Board of Elections.

Can I Obtain Special Help At The Polls If I Need It? Yes. For example, any handicapped or disabled person may have the assistance of any person of his or her choice or the assistance of a family member or two inspectors (one Democratic and one Republican).

How Do I Cast A Write-In Vote? If asked, an inspector will show you where the write-in slots are located in the sample ballot displayed in your polling place. You should be aware that once you raise the write-in slot, all levers in the column are frozen. You will not be able to change your mind and vote for a name on the machine. (The only exception to this is when two or more candi- date is to be chosen. In this case, the machine will not lock so that you can vote for both write-in and ballot candidates.) If you do cast a write- in vote for a person whose name appears on the ballot, your vote for that person will not be counted.

How Is My Vote Kept Secret? Your vote is kept secret through a sophisticated system of mechanical and administrative safeguards. For example, the back of the voting machine can only be opened at the beginning of an election and the close of voting (only totals show). The number assigned to each voter is an anti-fraud device and in no way reveals for whom the voter casts his or her ballot. It makes it possible to keep an exact record of the number of voters entering the machine.

How Can I Vote When I Am Away From Home? If you are absent from the County because of you occupation, business, vacation, or studies you can request an Absentee Ballot Application and vote absentee in any Special, Primary or General Election. The applica- tion may be obtained from the Board of Elections. Just write or come in. Applications that are mailed must be completed and received by the Board no later than 7 days before the election. NOTE: Any person qualifies for an Absentee Ballot may come to the Board of Elections, up through the day preceding the Election, complete the Absentee Ballot Application, and cast his or her vote at the Board.

How Can I Vote When I Am Ill Or Disabled? If you are unable to vote in person because of illness or physical disabil- ity you may vote by absentee ballot. Persons who are permanently ill or disabled may receive absentee ballots for all future election by filling a single application.

Polls Are Open For Voting On Primary/General Election Days In Rockland County From 6AM- 9PM
