Brooklyn Democratic Party leader Assemblymember Rodneyse Bichotte has called a virtual public meeting with Board of Elections Executive Director Michael Ryan and Kings County Democratic Party Executive Committee members to discuss faulty ballots that were distributed across several neighborhoods in Brooklyn.
Bichotte and district leaders will discuss what caused the snafu and how to prevent it from happening again. Leaders are also demanding to know the fate of third-party vendor Phoenix Graphics, a large GOP donor that is responsible for the error that affected a batch of approximately 100,000 ballots.
Bichotte and the committee will also consider ways to ensure voters will have their ballots counted in a secure and timely manner.
The virtual meeting, which will take place Friday morning, is expected to provide answers to questions district leaders have seen pouring in since voters began receiving the erroneous ballots over the weekend.
The meeting will be live-streamed on our social media pages. Members of the public who wish to attend can follow the links below:
