纽约南区与东区联邦检察官公布选举投诉通道：提前投票10月24日开始、专员值守至选举日
美国司法部纽约东区与南区联邦检察官办公室宣布，两区将参与司法部全国「选举日计划」，为11月3日举行的2026年大选受理选举相关投诉；纽约州的提前投票期为10月24日至11月1日。
纽约东区联邦检察官 Joseph Nocella 与南区联邦检察官 Jamie McDonald 宣布，联邦助理检察官 Erik Paulsen 与 Andrew Grubin 被任命为东区的地区选举官，David J. Kennedy 被任命为南区的地区选举官。三人负责与华盛顿的司法部总部协调，处理本辖区内有关投票权、对选举官员或工作人员的暴力威胁以及选举欺诈的投诉。投票期间，助理检察官将在各区值守。
Nocella 表示：「当纽约东区公民行使这一基本宪法权利时，程序必须依法得到保障。任何企图破坏程序的人都将被绳之以法。」McDonald 表示：「民主取决于自由、公平、可及的选举。纽约南区很自豪能延续长期做法，让公众能及时报告在投票站可能遇到的任何问题。」
司法部指出，联邦法律禁止对选举官员或工作人员施以暴力威胁、恐吓或贿赂选民、买卖选票、冒名投票、篡改计票结果、塞票以及违背选民意愿代其填票等行为；《投票权法》与《美国残疾人法》保障选民自行填票、或在因残疾或英语能力有限需要协助时由其自选的人协助填票的权利。
投诉通道方面，Manhattan、Bronx 及 Dutchess、Orange、Putnam、Rockland、Sullivan、Westchester 各县的投诉电话为 (646) 369-4739；Brooklyn、Queens、Staten Island 及 Nassau、Suffolk 两县为 (718) 208-1182，受理至11月3日。联邦投票权法律方面的投诉也可直接向华盛顿的司法部民权司提出，电话 800-253-3931。联邦调查局 FBI 纽约外地办公室电话为 (212) 384-1000。司法部同时说明，如遇暴力犯罪或恐吓，应先拨打911报警，州与地方警察对投票站有首要管辖权、应急反应通常更快。
New York U.S. Attorneys Announce Election Complaint Lines Ahead of Early Voting and November 3 Election
The U.S. Attorney's Offices for the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York announced that Assistant U.S. Attorneys will lead their offices' efforts under the Justice Department's nationwide Election Day Program for the November 3, 2026 general election, including New York's early voting period, which runs from October 24 through November 1, 2026.
U.S. Attorney Joseph Nocella of the Eastern District and U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald of the Southern District announced that AUSAs Erik Paulsen and Andrew Grubin have been appointed District Election Officers for the Eastern District, and AUSA David J. Kennedy for the Southern District. In that role, they oversee their districts' handling of Election Day complaints involving voting rights concerns, threats of violence to election officials or staff, and election fraud, in consultation with Justice Department headquarters in Washington.
"When citizens of the Eastern District of New York exercise the fundamental constitutional right to vote, the process must be legally safeguarded," Nocella said. "Anyone seeking to corrupt the process will be brought to justice." McDonald said: "Democracy depends upon elections that are free, fair, and accessible. The Southern District of New York is proud to continue its longstanding practice of maintaining an opportunity for voters to promptly report any issues that they may face at the polls."
Federal law protects against crimes including threatening violence against election officials or staff, intimidating or bribing voters, buying and selling votes, impersonating voters, altering vote tallies, stuffing ballot boxes, and marking ballots for voters against their wishes or without their input. The Voting Rights Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act protect the right of voters to mark their own ballot or to be assisted by a person of their choice where voters need assistance because of disability or limited English proficiency.
Complaints during the voting period ending November 3 can be made at (646) 369-4739 for Manhattan, the Bronx, and Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, and Westchester counties, and at (718) 208-1182 for Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and Nassau and Suffolk counties. Complaints about possible violations of federal voting rights laws can also be made to the Civil Rights Division in Washington, D.C., at 800-253-3931. The FBI's New York Field Office can be reached at (212) 384-1000. In the case of a crime of violence or intimidation, the offices advise calling 911 immediately, as state and local police have primary jurisdiction over polling places.
