ALBANY, NY – We hope you are keeping well and safe during the COVID-19 pandemic although we know our state has been severely impacted by this public health crisis.

All GPNY Members (enrolled New York State Greens and Supporting Members legally barred from registering to vote) are invited to participate in our presidential preference vote by absentee ballot.
