Registered voters in the city can cast ballots in the Democratic primary for mayor and other races starting on Saturday.
June 14, 2025, 3:00 a.m. ET
After two debates, countless candidate forums, millions of dollars spent on advertisements and months of campaigning, early voting is beginning in New York City’s contentious Democratic primary for mayor. Registered voters can begin casting ballots on Saturday.
Primary races for other city offices are on the ballot as well, including City Council, comptroller and public advocate.
Here’s what to know if you plan to vote early. Primary Day is June 24.
When can I vote?
The early voting period across New York State begins Saturday, June 14, and runs through Sunday, June 22. The opening and closing times for New York City polling places vary by day, so check the Board of Elections’s website before heading out.
How do I find my polling place?
Look it up here. Keep in mind that your early voting location may differ from where you would vote on Primary Day.
Who is eligible to vote?
Anyone who has lived in New York City full-time for at least 30 days before the election and does not claim the right to vote elsewhere is eligible to vote if they are a U.S. citizen, at least 18 and not in prison on a felony conviction, and have not been deemed mentally unfit to vote.
Voters must be registered with a political party to vote in that party’s primary, meaning registered Republicans and unaffiliated voters cannot vote in the Democratic primary for mayor. (There is no Republican primary for mayor this year.)
