In response to news that Board of Elections (BOE) Commission Doug Kellner has departed from the Board, Let NY Vote Coalition put out the following statement:

“Doug Kellner had a deep understanding of election administration. He championed accountability, election security and accuracy as well as the use of paper ballots throughout his tenure on the Board. We are incredibly appreciative of his nearly two decades in public service as Commissioner and Co-Chair of the New York State Board of Elections. We look forward to working with incoming Commissioner and former NYC Council member Henry Berger to prioritize transparency, equity and voter-friendly reforms ahead of this year’s 2024 election cycle and beyond.”
