KW: Ian and I went to vote today, at our polling station in North Babylon, New York. They are still using the old voting machines. So, to write-in, you slide back the blue rectangle at the top, write the name of the person you are voting for in pencil (it is most likely to count if you write in a person’s name who lives in the district.
