Barclays Center, City Board of Elections plan ‘major announcement’ Tuesday at arena

BSE Global, Joe Tsai’s holding group for his New York sports properties, and the New York City Board of Elections will hold a press conference Tuesday at Barclays Center to make a “major announcement,” presumably involving voting at the Nets arena on Election Day, November 3.

The press conference will include John Abbamondi, the Nets and Barclays Center CEO; Michael Ryan, director of the city board of elections; Brooklyn Boro President Eric Adams and City Council Majority Leader, Laurie Cumbo.

Several NBA teams have already agreed to let their home arenas become polling places in light of the need for large spaces at a time of social distancing and masks.
