Middle Grove, New York Public Records

New York residents can register to vote online at https://voterreg.dmv.ny.gov/MotorVoter/ or by submitting paper applications available at the Saratoga County Board of Elections, town offices, libraries, and DMV locations. Registration must be completed 25 days before an election; the state does not offer Election Day registration. Applicants provide their name, address, date of birth, and either the last four digits of their Social Security number or DMV ID number. As an unincorporated hamlet within the Town of Greenfield, Middle Grove does not hold separate municipal elections for mayor or city council. Instead, residents participate in Town of Greenfield elections for Town Supervisor, Town Board members, Town Clerk, and Highway Superintendent; these town-level contests typically occur in odd-numbered years, with the next Town of Greenfield elections scheduled for November 2025. To locate your assigned polling place, use the New York State Board of Elections polling place locator at https://voterlookup.elections.ny.gov/ or contact the county Board of Elections directly. Early voting is available at designated sites countywide during the nine days prior to Election Day. Under New York Election Law, voter registration lists are public records available for purchase by political committees and candidates; individual voter history showing whether someone voted in a given election, though not how they voted, is also public. Campaign finance filings for state and local candidates can be reviewed via the New York State Board of Elections Campaign Finance system at https://publicreporting.elections.ny.gov/. In the November 2024 presidential election, Saratoga County reported approximately 64% voter turnout, with roughly 127,000 ballots cast out of nearly 198,000 registered voters; the county leaned toward Republican candidates in federal races. On November 3, 2026, voters here will participate in the statewide general election, which will include races for New York Governor (a four-year term), all 213 seats in the New York State Assembly, approximately half of the 63-member State Senate depending on district cycle, one U.S. Senate seat (though New York's Senate seats are up in different cycles; 2026 will not feature a regularly scheduled U.S. Senate race unless a special election occurs), and Saratoga County offices such as County Clerk, Sheriff, and District Attorney if those seats are scheduled. Town of Greenfield offices elected in 2025 will not appear on the 2026 ballot. To request an absentee ballot in New York, voters must submit a written application available at https://www.elections.ny.gov/VotingAbsentee.html or from the Saratoga County Board of Elections by mail or in person; the deadline is seven days before Election Day for mail delivery, or the day before Election Day for in-person pickup. New York allows no-excuse absentee voting, but voters must affirmatively request a ballot; the state does not offer universal mail-in voting. Absentee ballots must be postmarked by Election Day and received within seven days to be counted.
