Governor Cuomo has signed a law (S.8015-D/A.10833) relating to Absentee Ballot Requests due to risk of illness for the General Election in November. This legislation gives voters the right to request an absentee ballot due to risk of illness to themselves or others. Registered voters can use the TEMPORARY ILLNESS reason, in box one, on the absentee ballot application.
