Yaacov Behrman of the Jewish Future Alliance and District Leader Anthony Beckford debunk myths about voting in the US Elections.
Myth:
You must vote strictly along party lines.
Facts
You can vote for any candidate of your choice. However, you cannot vote for the same candidate on more than one party line. For example, in Borough Park, Simcha Felder is listed on multiple party lines. Voting for him more than once would disqualify your vote.
Myth:
If you suspect poll workers are directing voters on how to vote, just take a photo of them.
Facts
New York City has strict laws against taking photos in polling places to protect voter privacy and prevent intimidation. Instead, get their name and report any concerns to the Board of Elections.
Myth:
New York requires voters to present identification when voting.
Facts
New York does not require voters to present identification while voting. However, if a voter does not provide valid identification at the time of registration, he or she must show identification at the polling place when voting for the first time.

The system can ask to see ID and that’s the only time a poll worker ask too we ID and they will show you the system is asking to see ID
