Today, November 6 is voting day across the nation as millions of Americans will take to the polls to choose our president for the next four years. For those in the northeast, things may be a little tough after Hurricane Sandy swept through, leaving many displaced. If you're one of Hurricane Sandy's displaced victims, and are wondering how you are going to cast your vote, here's some good news - you can do it anywhere.

New York Governor Andrew M. Cuomo signed an order yesterday that allows displaced voters to cast their votes at any polling station in New York state. Voters who are legally registered can sign affidavits stating so, and can cast their votes at the nearest, most convenient polling station.

There is a catch though - if you use a voting booth outside of your district or county, you will not be able to vote for local officials. You will only be able to cast a vote for the presidential and Senate races.

"We want everyone to vote. Just because you are displaced doesn't mean you should be disenfranchised. But in the local races, if you vote in a different Assembly district, a different Senate district, your vote will not count in that district. That is the downside to the system," said Governor Cuomo.

The reasoning here is pretty obvious, and it's still better to be able to vote in our national elections than not being able to vote at all.
