One business sign after another is written in Chinese. And on Election Day, voters will cast ballots in a Taiwanese community center.
Diverse cities such as New York face daunting challenges Tuesday as they try to ensure that signs and ballots are printed in other languages including Spanish, Korean and Chinese, and that interpreters are available to help voters whose English fluency is limited.
