Early voting in District 24

Before heading to Queens College to cast his early vote in the special election in District 24 this week, Jim Morningstar, a resident of the district for 26 years, wasn’t familiar with the new Ranked-Choice Voting system.
There was no crowd at the voting site on Monday afternoon, the third day of early voting, but Morningstar took time navigating the ballot. “I did disqualify my first ballot but that was my own negligence,” he told Gothamist. “I don’t know if it disqualified it, but I just didn’t want to take the chance of my voice not counting.”
