The general election is coming up next week on November 6, 2018. This is basically my research that I did for informing my choices on election day. By posting this I am hoping that it will be of use for others as well.
In order to find out who the candidates are, you will need to do a ballot lookup through Ballotpedia which will give you a look at your options during voting day.
I’m posting this even though I don’t have videos for everyone because election day is tomorrow. I’ll update this post as I come across more videos.
As for New York, the following candidates are up for election:
Question 1: New York Campaign Finance City Charter Amendment
Summary: This amendment decreases the amount that a candidate for city elected office may accept from a contributor and increases the public funding available for a citywide candidate participating in the city’s public matching funds program.
Flip Your Ballot NYC has an in depth explanation of all 3 with translations into many languages.
