Election Day is over, but the rules do not change with the calendar. Here is what New York law guarantees you the next time you vote — and what your employer and your coworkers cannot do about it.

1. You can get paid time off to vote — up to two hours.

Under Election Law § 3-110, if you do not have four consecutive hours off work while the polls are open (6 a.m. to 9 p.m.), your employer has to give you up to two hours of paid time off at the start or end of your shift so you can vote. Your employer cannot make you use PTO for it. One catch: you have to give notice — between two and ten working days before the election. So plan ahead; do not spring it on your boss the morning of.

2. At the polls, no ID is generally required.

In New York you do not generally need to show ID to vote. If you are in line by 9 p.m., you get to vote — stay in line. And if your name is not on the rolls, ask for an affidavit ballot. Do not walk away without voting.

3. No campaigning within 100 feet.

Nobody can campaign within 100 feet of the entrance to a polling place (Election Law § 8-104). That includes your coworkers if they show up to the polls with you.

4. Nobody at work gets a say in your vote.

Your boss cannot tell you who to vote for, threaten you over your vote, or demand to know who you voted for. Same for your coworkers. Your vote is yours.

5. If something goes wrong.

The New York Attorney General runs an election hotline: 1-866-390-2992. Save it before the next election.

Most voting problems are small — a missing name on the rolls, a boss who does not know the law. Knowing the rules before you walk in is the whole ballgame.
