Letitia James Launches New York Election Protection Hotline

New York State Attorney General Letitia James announced the availability of the state's Election Protection Hotline to assist voters during early voting and the general election. The service, which has been operated by the Office of the Attorney General since 2018, is designed to troubleshoot issues involving voter registration, mail-in ballots, and problems encountered at polling locations.

Staffed by attorneys and personnel, the hotline processes requests to ensure that elections remain free from intimidation and harassment. The service operates from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. during early voting and from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Election Day, with extended availability on the days immediately preceding and following the vote. Voters also have the option to submit complaints online at any time.
