New York City voters will decide in November on Ballot Proposal 6, which aims to align city elections with presidential ones in even years. This shift, contingent on state legislative approval, seeks to boost voter turnout, particularly among underrepresented groups. Odd-year elections currently suffer from low participation, with the 2021 mayoral election seeing just 23% turnout.
