ELECTION WEB PAGE FEATURED ON NEW YORK STATE LIBRARY WEB SITE

You can find all the information you need about elections in New York State on a new page of the New York State Library’s web site. "Selected New York State Election Websites," a page of links relating to elections and election-related topics can be accessed from the State Library’s web site at www.nysl.nysed.gov. Point to Hot Topics: Election Websites under "What's New" in the bottom right hand corner of the Library's main page or go directly to http://www.nysl.nysed.gov/reference/election.htm.

The websites on the page cover federal, state, and local representatives; New York State newspapers; political and citizen groups; New York-based public opinion polls; and more. You can learn about how Federal Campaign Finance Laws are administered and enforced, find out about the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and its role in regulating federal elections, learn how to register to vote, identify your State representatives, view election district maps from the NYS Legislative Task Force on Demographic Research and Apportionment, connect to your local county to find notice of county government meetings, and link to other important information about elections and the election process.
