A Note About Writing In Candidates’ Names:
In some districts, you may vote for a candidate whose name does not appear on the ballot
(a “write-in” candidate). First, check with the election clerks at your polling place.
If you can write in a candidate, find the button above the column of the numbered slots all
the way to the left of the voting machine. Push the button and, while holding it in, open the
slot opposite the office for which you wish to write in a candidate’s name. In the slot, write
in the name of the candidate you want. Cast your vote for other offices in the usual way. For
further information, call 866-VOTE-NYC.
