With Election Day is only a few short weeks away, early voting has begun in many states. In New York early voting will take place for one week prior to Election Day, from Saturday, October 24 – Sunday, November 1. For our members living in Florida, the statewide early voting dates are Saturday, October 24 – Saturday, October 31. Additional days may be added on a county by county basis. Members who reside in other states should consult the website for their state and county election commission.
