N.Y. Election Law § 3-500: Alternative poll site staffing plan

§ 3-500. Alternative poll site staffing plan. 1. Notwithstanding the

provisions of title four of this article, a board of elections may

design an alternative poll site staffing plan to more efficiently

conduct an election in accordance with this section. Such alternative

poll site staffing plan must be filed with the state board of elections.

2. An alternative staffing plan shall provide for at least four

inspectors, equally divided among the major parties, to be assigned to

each poll site, and all staffing must be likewise bipartisan. An

alternative staffing plan may consolidate election district and poll

site staffing functions to efficiently conduct an election pursuant to

this chapter, provided the tabulation of votes by election district

shall not be impaired unless consolidation of election districts for an

election is otherwise permitted by this chapter, and such staffing plan

complies with 9 NYCRR 6210.19(c).
