Commissioner Cirillo Calls for Early Polling Location at the Waterfront

West New York, New Jersey – April 6, 2023 – At the West New York Board of Commissioners meeting on April 5, 2023, Commissioner Cosmo A. Cirillo, Ph.D. called on the Hudson County Board of Elections to place an early polling location at the Waterfront. The proposal was made in an attempt to increase voter turnout and make voting locations more accessible and spread out throughout town. The addition of a Waterfront polling location would allow more residents to vote who would otherwise be less likely  to do so.

“We have an entire group of residents who have been underrepresented and disenfranchised from voting because there are no polling places accessible in their community,” said Cirillo. “I’m calling on the board of elections to fix that issue.”

Election day is Tuesday, May 9, 2023. To learn more about the Column A candidates and their  campaign, visit www.wnyforward.com and follow West New York Forward’s social media @WNYForward on Facebook and Instagram.
