Tish, Bill and Marty to Board of Elections: Prepare for Overcrowding on Tuesday

Just got an email press release from Markowitz’s press guy about an announcement today urging the Board of Elections to prepare for overcrowding on Election Day and to provide transportation to the polls for seniors.

City Hall –  This Sunday Councilmembers Bill de Blasio and Letitia James, along Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz and other elected officials, will call on the City’s Board of Elections to extend the hours at busy polling places to midnight to accommodate the expected high voter turnout on Election Day. They will also call on the Board of Elections to make special accommodations for senior voters.
