Village Election

Are You Registered to Vote?

Voter registration is facilitated at the County level if you would like to register to vote, please visit the Nassau County Board of Elections site on Voting Info and Services. To register you must: be a U.S. citizen; be 18 years old (you may pre-register at 16 or 17 but cannot vote until you are 18); live at your present address at least 30 days before an election; not be in prison for a felony conviction; and not claim the right to vote elsewhere. In order to be eligible to vote in the Village Election, you must be a registered voter with the Nassau County Board of Elections no later than 10 days prior to the Village Election. If you are yet a registered voter, registration forms are available at Village Hall, at the County Board of Elections or can be found online by clicking here. Not sure if you are registered? Voters who are unsure of their registration status may either call the Nassau County Board of Elections at 571-VOTE (8683) or search the State Board of Elections database. Should you have any questions about becoming a registered voter or about any other elections other than Village Elections, please see the below links to the Nassau County and New York State Board of Elections.

Ballot Applications for Village Elections

Application must be personally delivered to the Village not later than the day before the election. If you want to mail your application, it must be received by the Village not later than the 10th day before the election. The ballot itself must either be personally delivered to the Village no later than the close of polls on election day, or postmarked by a governmental postal service not later than the day of the election and received no later than 7 days after the election.

Who may apply for an absentee or early mail ballot?
Each person must apply for themselves. It is a felony to make a false statement in an application for an early mail ballot, to attempt to cast an illegal ballot, or to help anyone to cast an illegal ballot.

Applications for a ballot to be delivered by mail to the voter must be received at the Village Hall no later than 10 days before the election. 

When will your ballot be sent to you?
Your absentee or early mail ballot materials will be sent to you beginning 46 days before the Village Election in which you are eligible to vote. If you applied after this date, your ballot will be sent immediately after your completed and signed application is received and processed by the Village Clerk. If you prefer, you may designate someone to pick up your ballot for you, by completing the required information in section 4, as appropriate.
