A hotline for reporting voting problems in NY State tomorrow

http://patch.com/new-york/bedford/ny-primary-voting-problems-should-be-reported-hotline

Anyone who has a problem at the polls for the primary Tuesday, April 19 is urged to call a special hotline.

Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman announced that his office established a toll-free number to help troubleshoot and resolve issues voters may be having trying to vote.

He said voters experiencing problems or issues at the polls should call 1-800-771-7755 or email [email protected] at any time between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m.

The hotline will be staffed by attorneys and staff in the office’s Civil Rights Bureau.

I've been reading the Bernie group threads for a while now and I finally was inspired to be a part of this fantastic group!

Seriously check out the image of the Dem ballot. It looks like the infamous butterfly ballot of Florida in 2000 and I don't want Bernie to lose votes over it.

Please spread the word.

Go New York! Go Bernie!

I'm in New York and just checked out the newspaper, the polls here won't be opening early, had read that there would be shorter hours, noon till 9pm tomorrow. I hope that doesn't discourage voters who usually vote on their way to work...

Thanks for your post and it's great to have you with us!

I'm so happy to be a part of Bernie's revolution and of the DU Bernie group. We are all part of history. Enjoy your vote tomorrow!

We're very optimistic here in New York! I'm upstate, traditionally a Republican area, but everyone I know (some of whom I cajoled into registering and voting ) is voting for Bernie tomorrow. It doesn't get more important than this!
