Only kidding. But here’s my usual news-you-can-use for Election Day.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 4. Polls are open from 6a to 9p.

The Early Voting period starts this Saturday, October 25, and runs through Sunday, November 2. See the early voting hours here.

Find your poll site for both early voting and Election Day here.

We will be voting for:
Mayor
Public Advocate
Comptroller
Justice of the Supreme Court
District Attorney
Manhattan Borough President
City Council District 1

Plus there are six ballot proposals. See an analysis here from City&State and here from The City.

1. Amendment to Allow Olympic Sports Complex In Essex County on State Forest Preserve Land
This proposal would allow the expansion of new ski trails in the Olympic Sports Complex in Essex County, New York. The Olympic Sport Complex is in state forest preserve land. This proposal would also require New York State to add 2,500 acres of protected forest land to Adirondack Park.

2. Fast Track Affordable Housing to Build More Affordable Housing Across the City
This proposal would make two new processes to fast-track certain affordable housing projects. The first process is for publicly financed affordable housing projects. The second process is for affordable housing projects in the 12 community districts with the lowest rates of affordable housing development.

3. Simplify Review of Modest Housing and Infrastructure Projects
This proposal would create a faster review process for certain land use projects, such as smaller projects to change how land is used and to prepare the city for extreme weather or other future challenges. For most of these projects, the proposed process would remove final review by the City Council.

4. Establish an Affordable Housing Appeals Board with Council, Borough, and Citywide Representation
This proposal would change the current land use review process when the City Council rejects or changes an affordable housing project. The proposal would create an Affordable Housing Appeals Board, made up of the local Borough President, Speaker of the City Council, and Mayor. The proposal would allow the Appeals Board to reverse the City Council’s decision with a two-to-one vote.

5. Create a Digital City Map to Modernize City Operations
This proposal would make the Department of City Planning (DCP) responsible for creating, maintaining, and digitizing a single City Map.

6. Move Local Elections to Presidential Election Years to Increase Voter Participation
This proposal would move election dates for city offices to the same year as federal presidential elections.

There’s a mayoral debate tonight at 7p on NY1. You can watch the first one here.
