blimixHi, everyone!
Midterm elections are really important for our future. Early voting is in progress, through Sunday, November 6th in New York. The general election is on Tuesday, November 8th. Your early voting site is probably not your regular polling place. Your local Board of Elections should list the early voting locations and hours.
Information about the candidates and propositions on your ballot, as well as your election day polling location, can be found here:
https://www.vote411.org/
Give it your address; click the "Submit" button. Choose your language and click "Go to My Races".
You'll also get a link to a source of early polling places. (At least, I did.)
If you have problems voting, you can call or text 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-687-8683). This appears to be advertised nationwide.
New York polling places, races, propositions, and verification of voter registration:
https://voterlookup.elections.ny.gov/
Early voting places are listed in a drop-down menu in the first box.
Ballotpedia is working for me this year:

Albany county information:
https://www.albanycounty.com/departments/board-of-elections
(You can generate a sample ballot for your address.)
Rensselaer county information:

Schenectady county information:

Saratoga county information:

I'm kind of swamped, so I haven't taken the time to look for endorsements.
This post is not a discussion forum, but I would appreciate relevant links to further information.
