Election 2021: Where you can vote early in Central New York

Voting in Syracuse

New York allows registered voters to cast an early ballot at select polling sites for nine days from Oct. 23 through Oct. 31, 2021. Election Day is Nov. 2. Ellen M. Blalock | The Post-StandardSYR

Central New York voters can begin casting ballots in person for the 2021 election on Oct. 23, when polls will open for nine days of early voting before Election Day on Nov. 2.

None of the polling sites will be open on Monday, Nov. 1, the day before the election.

It will be the third year that New York has allowed in-person voting before Election Day under a law aimed at making it easier to vote in the state.

Before the change, New York had ranked among the 10 worst states for voter turnout in elections in 2016 and 2018.
