Citizens across Brooklyn are detailing far and wide issues with mislabeled truant polling forms — an issue the city Board of Elections has accused on an external seller.
In various cases imparted to The Post, inhabitants over the ward got polling form return envelopes bearing an inappropriate name and address, starting disarray over how to fix the mistake five weeks in front of the political decision.
“It’s a significant issue. This isn’t feeding trust in the political decision framework,” said Brooklyn Heights occupant, Jiong Wang, who got a return envelope for his polling form with the name and address of an elector who carries on with a half-mile away.
In the interim, Wang’s significant other, Jill Wiehoff, got a voting form return envelope with her better half’s name on it.
A similar truant polling form mislabeling issue was experienced by a Downtown Brooklyn elector whose return envelope bore the name of an occupant living two traffic lights away.
In light of the mess, the citizen, who talked on the state of obscurity, said he currently plans to cast a ballot face to face.
“I’m disillusioned,” the citizen stated, “and I trust the BOE fixes it very f—ing soon.”
Another Brooklyn inhabitant, Brian Gresko, said he and his better half, alongside two different couples on his road, were sent inaccurately marked polling forms.
“It’s shocking!” he said.
