NYC early voting ends with record turnout, shattering 2021 stats (polls close at 9pm eastern)

Early voting has ended in New York City, and the initial numbers show the highest early voting turnout for a non-presidential election in the city.

The New York City Board of Elections reported 735,317 early voting check-ins over the past nine days. That's more than four times the total from the 2021 mayoral race, which reported only 169,879 early voting check-ins for the general election.

New Yorkers have been showing up and showing they care about who leads the city.
