N.Y. Election Law § 4-119: Publication of list of places for registration

§ 4-119. Publication of list of places for registration. 1. The board

or body authorized to designate places for registration in any city,

other than the city of New York, shall publish on each day of

registration a list of the places for registration designated within

such city in two newspapers published in such city. The lists shall

refer to the election districts by their numbers and wards or assembly

districts. Such lists shall identify those polling places which do not

provide access to handicapped voters. The board of elections of the city

of New York shall publish in at least two newspapers in such city, a

notice, at least one-half page in size, in English and such other

languages as such board deems appropriate which shall set forth the

dates and hours of registration and the phone number to call for

information about location of polling places, their accessibility to the

handicapped, applications for early mail and absentee ballots and any

other subjects which such board deems appropriate. So far as is

consistent with the provisions of this section, one of such newspapers

in each such city or, in each county of the city of New York, shall

represent each of the major political parties and shall have a large

circulation affording wide publicity. If the newspaper is an evening

newspaper the notice shall be published on the last day, other than a

Sunday, prior to any such day of registration.

2. The board or body authorized to designate places for registration

in any town may publish within one week next preceding the first day of

registration in a newspaper or newspapers designated by such board or

body, a list of places of registration within such town, a statement of

the days and hours of registration and a brief description of the

boundaries of each election district in the town. Such lists shall

identify those polling places which do not provide access to handicapped

voters. The amount to be paid for any of such publications shall be at

the rate prescribed by section seventy-a of the public officers law. In

no publication, however, shall any type smaller than agate be used. The

amount to be paid for all such publications shall be a town charge.
