Folks are out in force at PS 234, PS 89 and the Tweed Courthouse, though wait times right now aren’t that bad: less that 20 minutes for almost all the election districts. (There are a couple of odd little blips: for the folks who live around Vestry and West streets, it’s 50 minutes, for example.) You can check them here. (Thanks to H. for the time lapse from above!)

Over the course of nine days of early voting, about 282,000 Manhattanites went to the polls — that’s out of 998,000 active voters.

I went looking for my own stories in 2020 — just to see what was going on then. Early voting was in its first year; the only polling site for Downtown was on Houston. And the night before Election Day, business owners around the neighborhood were boarding up their storefronts. DC is doing the same right now, but not NYC this time. So at least we have that going for us.
