NY A04094

Removes party lines (rows/columns) from ballots for all elections except presidential and gubernatorial races, requiring candidates' names to appear only once per office rather than multiple times for each party that nominates them

Retains cross-endorsement voting (fusion voting) only for presidential and gubernatorial elections, where candidates nominated by multiple parties can still appear on separate party lines

Eliminates column/row designating numbers for non-presidential and non-gubernatorial races, consolidating each office into its own section of the ballot

Requires that above, below, or to the right of each candidate's name, the names of all political parties or independent bodies nominating that candidate be printed in less prominent type

Takes effect one year after becoming law and applies to all elections occurring on or after that date
