NY Voter Registration Ends Friday: Here's How To Do It

NEW YORK CITY — The clock is ticking for New Yorkers looking to have a say in the fast-approaching 2020 election.

Friday is the last day for voter registration online, by mail or in person in New York.

Mayor Bill de Blasio on Thursday encouraged all city dwellers to register if they haven't already for "the most important election of our lifetimes."

"Everyone's voice should be heard," he said. "Register to vote by tomorrow so you can be a part of it."

So how can New Yorkers register? Here's a quick and easy guide:

Am I registered?

If you're not sure whether you're registered or not, there's a few different ways to find out. None is quicker than simply checking online here.

Fill out your name, birthdate, borough and ZIP code and this Board of Elections of New York City will show whether you're registered. And if you are, it includes information on your early voting and polling locations.

I'm not registered. Now what?

There are three ways to register to vote.
