Information from cyberpj

During primaries and caucuses we maintain voter hotlines.

They are typically open from a few days before the election to a few days after.

You can email us at help@berniesanders.com
and we'll send you that info on or just before election day in your state.

Outside of that time, to report a voter issue you can contact your Secretary of State or local Board of Elections.

Thank you for your vote and your help in spreading Bernie's message!

Information from Downwinder
If a voter experiences a problem at their poll site, State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman's office has set up a hotline that will be staffed by attorneys in the office's Civil Rights Bureau. That number is 800-771-7755. Complaints can also be submitted through email at civil.rights@ag.ny.gov at any time between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. on Tuesday.
