The number of registered voters in each New York political party that is not qualified is: Independence 388,779; Green 22,322; Libertarian 20,504; Women’s Equality 4,468; Reform 1,307; SAM 561. That is as of November 1, 2021.
The national office of the Libertarian Party estimates that approximately 150 party members were elected to party office on November 2. The office is still working on the complete list. See this press release.
On November 2, voters in three cities were asked if they want to use ranked choice voting for future elections for local office. In all three cities, the measure passed. The three cities are Broomfield, Colorado; Westbrook, Maine; and Ann Arbor, Michigan.
On November 3, the New York State Board of Elections released new voter registration data. See this link.
The Board’s website did not reveal the number of registrants in any of the unqualified parties, but the Board does keep this data and this post will be updated when that data has been obtained. For the time being, the number of voters registered in unqualified parties is in the “Other” column on the Board’s website.
Some New York newspapers are erroneously saying that the registrants in the unqualified parties have been converted to independent voters. This is not true.
The new percentages are: Democratic 50.12%; Republican 21.99%; Conservative 1.26%; Working Families .37%; unqualified parties 3.56%; independents 22.71%. In New York, election officials use the term “blanks” to mean independent voters.
In February 2021, when the last tally was released, the percentages were: Democratic 50.05%; Republican 22.11%; Conservative 1.25%; Working Families .36%; unqualified parties 3.73%; independent 22.50%.
These percentages are for active voters. Ballot Access News has been reporting the number of registered voters in each party since 1992, and has always reported active voter data.
