Where do I vote?

New voting locations for 2008

With a focus on enhancing accessibility for voters throughout the community, the City School District of Albany has approved new voting locations in election districts in eight of 15 wards.

 

The Board of Education approved the new locations at its March 4 meeting. The decision followed the work of an ad hoc committee that began studying the issue in 2007. The committee presented information and statistics about voting trends to the Albany Common Council and requested suggestions for changing the boundaries of voting locations to accommodate voters.

 

Voting for the 2008-09 school budget will be Tuesday, May 20. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

 

Polling sites for the school district budget vote are different from the polling locations used for city-wide elections. Follow the chart below to learn where you vote in a school budget, or find your street and voting location in a searchable directory (download the list in .pdf format; to search, hold down the Ctrl and F keys at the same time, then enter your street name).

 

If you still have questions, please contact the Catherine Cutting, clerk of the board, at 475-6010.
