New Yorkers have until Friday to register to vote on Election Day.

That deadline applies to postmarks or any application that’s hand-delivered to county boards of elections or online.

New voters will need a New York issued ID card, such as a driver’s license, to apply.

All changes of address registrations – both mailed or delivered in person – must be received by the county board of elections by October 14.

For more information on voting check out the WSHU 2020 Voters' Guide.
