There will be five proposals on the back of the ballot this election.  These proposals were chosen by the charter revision commission that was assembled by Mayor Mamdani.

A vote of yes on these proposals will mean less input from YOU, the people of this city, who will be affected by these changes. A NO vote will mean you want your voice to continue to be heard when decisions are being made.

🗳️ Be sure to get out and vote in this election.

🗓️ Early voting begins on Saturday, October 24 and goes through Sunday, November 1.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 3.

2026 NYC BALLOT PROPOSALS

WHY WE MUST VOTE NO!

PROPOSAL #1 — PUBLIC SPACES

NO to less community input on decisions affecting our sidewalks and streets.

PROPOSAL #2 — GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS

NO to speeding up billions in taxpayer-funded contracts with fewer safeguards.

PROPOSAL #3 — STREET PROJECTS & CITY PROPERTY

NO to fast-tracking bike lanes, bus lanes and street redesigns while reducing community review.

PROPOSAL #4 — BUILDING PERMITS

NO to shortcuts that could reduce scrutiny of development and neighborhood impacts.

PROPOSAL #5 — RAINY DAY FUND

NO to locking away more taxpayer dollars while communities have urgent needs today.

THE REAL ISSUE: DEMOCRACY

These proposals could mean faster government, more administrative power and fewer opportunities for residents and Community Boards to be heard.

Efficiency should NEVER come at the expense of public participation and accountability.

VOTE NO ON PROPOSALS 1–5

Protect Community Input. Protect Accountability. Protect Our Voice.
