City Council passes bill allowing New Yorkers to register to vote online
New Yorkers will soon be able to register to vote online after the City Council passed legislation to allow it Thursday.
The city Campaign Finance Board will set up a website and create an app to allow would-be voters to register.
“It seems like every election in New York City, it’s a new low for voter turnout,” said Councilman Ben Kallos (D-Manhattan), noting the dismal turnout in last week’s mayoral election.
