Media Advisory: New York City Charter Revision Commission Kicks Off "Days Of Action" Ahead Of General Election

Commissioners, Volunteers, and Staff Will Be Working Throughout the City to Educate New Yorkers on Ballot Proposals for the November 6 General Election

NEW YORK - The New York City Charter Revision Commission (CRC) will begin hosting Days of Action starting on Tuesday, October 30th as part of its "Flip Your Ballot, Vote on the Issues" public education campaign. During these Days of Action, Commission members, staff and community volunteers will be providing non-partisan public education materials to New Yorkers at high-traffic areas throughout the city, like subway and bus stops, schools, business districts and health care facilities.

These Days of Action will occur through the General Election and are part of the Commission's extensive work informing New Yorkers about the ballot questions. New Yorkers can learn about the ballot questions and sign up to volunteer at FlipYourBallot.nyc or on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram at @NYCCharter. Last week, the New York City Charter Revision Commission unveiled a new TV ad titled 'Flip,' reminding New Yorkers about the three questions that will appear on their ballots.
