What you need to know to vote in New York’s June primary
For a moment, New York’s moot presidential primary was off. Then it was back on. Now, the state is trying again in court to nix it.
But with or without the likes of Bernie Sanders and Andrew Yang on the ballot, New Yorkers will cast votes on June 23, the state’s primary day. Plenty of competitive congressional, state-level and local seats are up for consideration.
Because of special rules created in response to the pandemic, all New Yorkers now have the option to vote by absentee ballot. To do so, however, you have to request a ballot before June 16, then send it in.
