Walker Valley, New York Public Records

Registration deadlines fall 25 days before any election for new registrations and changes of address or party enrollment. Applicants need a valid New York State driver's license or non-driver ID, or the last four digits of a Social Security number. As an unincorporated hamlet, Walker Valley does not hold municipal elections for mayor or city council. Residents participate in Ulster County, New York State, and federal elections. Polling place assignments can be found using the NYS Board of Elections poll site locator at voterlookup.elections.ny.gov by entering the voter's address. No U.S. Campaign finance records for state and local candidates can be searched through the New York State Board of Elections campaign finance database at publicreporting.elections.ny.gov. Voter registration lists are available for purchase by campaigns and political committees under New York Election Law Section 3-200, though individual voter history is restricted. Precinct-level election results are published by the Ulster County Board following certification. New York allows absentee voting by mail for voters who will be absent from the county on election day, unable to appear due to illness or physical disability, or for several other specified reasons under Election Law Section 8-400. Absentee ballot applications must be received by the Ulster County Board of elections at least seven days before the election (postmarked by that date if mailed), and completed ballots must be postmarked by election day and received within seven days after. Early voting is available at designated sites in Ulster County during the nine days preceding Election Day, including weekends, at locations announced by the Board of Elections.
