“The Board of Elections is doing the bare minimum to implement early voting, especially in Queens where there are more voters assigned to each polling site than any other borough,” Common Cause New York Executive Director Susan Lerner said. “This is not only inexcusable, but likely a violation of state law. We need between 50-100 voting centers across the city to serve New Yorkers in non-traditional locations, close to transportation, borough-wide, and including city and state facilities. Both the city and the state have devoted millions...

“It’s a violation of voter privacy and I think it doesn’t follow the requirements of New York’s election law,” Susan Lerner of Common Cause NY said. According to Lerner, the law says the info can only be provided to people who use it for election purposes.

The BOE has proposed purchasing a new fleet of uncertified voting machines to solve the issues, but local officials say that will only add to the problems.

“It’s hackable, the ballot is changeable,” said Susan Lerner with Common Cause.

"Unë mendoj se ne po shkojmë në drejtimin e duhur," tha Susan Lerner, drejtore ekzekutive e grupit të qeverisjes së mirë Common Cause-NY, i cili ka mbështetur prej kohësh hapjen e procesit buxhetor më shumë për ligjvënësit dhe publikun. “Ata ende nuk dinë të bëjnë një proces legjislativ.”

Councilors Wednesday received a presentation from Susan Lerner, executive director of Common Cause New York, a statewide advocacy group that lobbies for better government processes.
