Felder keeping his office open 12 hours on primary day
Says he's doing it to help voters
State Sen. Simcha Felder isn’t even on the ballot on Primary Day, but he’s going to keep his district office open for 12 hours that day.
He won’t be anxiously watching election returns. He’s doing it, he said, to assist voters confused by polling place changes, district lines and by the re-introduction the old-fashioned lever voting machines that will be used.
Felder (D-Borough Park-Midwood-Flatbush) announced this week his office will remain open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Primary Day, Tuesday, Sept. 10 to help constituents who might be confused about their polling site locations or which candidates are running for a particular seat or office.
