On-Campus Voting a Success at Bard
Last week, Bard College hosted an on-campus polling site for the first time, following a lawsuit this fall against the Dutchess County Board of Elections. “It went really well,” says Jonathan Becker, executive vice president and director of the Center for Civic Engagement. “We had 20 people lined up to vote at 6 in the morning. It was particularly gratifying at around 9 a.m. when Bard President Leon Botstein and senior Sadia Saba, who are both plaintiffs in the lawsuit, came and voted together. To see that happen was really heartwarming.”
