Reinvent Albany submitted this supportive statement to the NYC Campaign Finance Board voter guide. Click here to see our support featured on the NYC Votes website for Ballot Proposal 6. 

— 

Reinvent Albany urges you to support higher voter turnout and a stronger democracy by voting YES ON QUESTION SIX, which moves New York City elections to even years. About twice as many New Yorkers vote in presidential election years, which are always in even years. Like you, we believe our democracy is stronger when more people select our mayor, city council, comptroller and public advocate. The State Legislature must pass a constitutional amendment enabling even-year elections. Vote YES on Question 6 and send a clear message to Albany that NYC voters want elections held in even years.
