Early voting in the NYC mayoral primary election underway
NEW YORK (WABC) -- Early voting is underway in New York City and across the state.
Polls first opened between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Saturday, and voters can cast a ballot during early voting until Sunday, June 22.
The primary is on June 24, but because of ranked-choice voting, it could take as along as July 1 to know the official results.
You must vote at your assigned early voting site. Your early voting site may be different from your Election Day poll site, so make sure to check before you go!
New York City voters can find their early voting location here.
The New York Early Mail Voter Act allows all voters to vote early by mail. You don't need to provide a reason to vote by mail anymore.
Here's what you need to know:
The deadline to apply online or by mail was June 14, 2025.
You can apply in-person at your local board of elections office up until June 23, 2025, the day before the primary.
For the November 4 General Election:
Deadline to apply online or by mail is October 25, 2025
Deadline to apply in person at your local board of elections office is November 3, 2025
After you receive your ballot:
Any registered voter can apply for an early mail ballot. If you have an early mail or absentee ballot for that election, you cannot use a voting machine at your poll site.
If you do not use your absentee or early mail ballot, you can only vote in person with an affidavit ballot at your poll site, and not with a voting machine.
