General Voter Registration/Election Information

• Primary Elections (held in even-numbered years)

A PRIMARY is a partisan election in which candidates are nominated by their parties. The nominees selected by each party are then placed on the ballot for the General Election. If more than one candidate files for the same office and is of the same party and only one person may be elected to that office, a primary will be held. The same holds true for an office where there are two seats. If more than two people file for nomination for the same office in one party and only two may be elected, a primary will be held. If you register with a party, you may vote only in that party’s Primary Election. Voters who have registered Unaffiliated are currently permitted to vote in either the Democratic or Republican Party’s Primary Elections. (Seventeen–year–olds who will be 18 by or on General Election Day may register to vote no earlier than 60 days nor later than 25 days prior to the Primary and vote in their party’s Primary Election or in a Municipal Primary Election. After the Primary Election, 17-year-olds who will be 18 by or on General Election Day may register to vote, but may only vote in Primaries until they are 18 years of age.)
