All New York registered voters can now apply for an absentee ballot at a web portal provided by the NY State Board of Elections. The deadline to apply is October 27, seven days before the November 3 election; however, the Post Office
cautions that ballots may be delayed, and recommends applying no later than October 18, and returning ballots early. The web portal is at https://www.elections.ny.gov/VotingAbsentee.html
