ALBANY, N.Y. (WIVB) — Once again, the Attorney General’s office is offering help to those who have issues at the primary polls with a special hotline.

The Attorney General’s Office has been offering a hotline to voters who encounter barriers at their polling place since 2012.

“Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy, and my office is deeply committed to ensuring equal access for all eligible voters on election day,” Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said. “I urge all New Yorkers to immediately contact my office if they face any barriers or issues that prevent them from casting an effective ballot.”

Schneiderman says disabilities, intimidation and issues faced by minority voters cause problems at the polls. In the past, Schneiderman’s office has received hundreds of complaints from voters who experienced difficulties. The Attorney General says his office has worked with election officials to resolve the issues in the past and will continue to do so.

For those who wish to submit a complaint, the hotline number is 800-771-7755. It is available from 6 a.m. until 9 p.m. Anyone who wishes to email their complaint can do so by sending a message to civil.rights@ag.ny.gov.

New York’s Presidential Primary takes place on April 19.
