On June 23, 2020 New York held its primary and special elections amid the COVID-19 outbreak. Governor Cuomo issued a series of executive orders to dramatically change how voting works in NY, in order to cope with the crisis.

Panelists include:

• Amanda Blair, co-founder, Brooklyn Voters Alliance
• Dustin Czarny, Chair, Democratic Commissioners Caucus
• Rachel Landy, Co-Chair, NYDLC Legislative Affairs Committee
• Austin Morgan, Field Organizer, McMurray for Congress
• Ali Najmi, Esq
