    Koshy Thomas urges voters to request absentee ballot if they are unable to go to the polling station on June 22nd

    NEW YORK (TIP): Koshy Thomas, a candidate running for New York City Council from District 23, requests voters who would be unable to go to the polling booth on election day to request an absentee ballot now so that they could participate in the upcoming election on June 22nd, 2021. It is also quite possible that a request form for the absentee ballot may be already in one’s inbox at home if one is a registered voter. “Our community is somewhat lackadaisical in going to the polling booths on election day, and an absentee ballot is a convenient tool to avoid the hassle of travel and waiting in the queue,” said Mr. Koshy Thomas, who is running to represent District 23 for New York City Council that includes, Floral Park, Bellerose, Queens Village, Hollis and Oakland Gardens. “Our participation in the democratic process is vital to the community in terms of bringing out the issues of our concerns and advancing our interests,” Mr. Thomas added.
