Democratic Primary Election Day Is June 23

Dutchess County voters will head to the polls on Tuesday, June 23, for this year's Democratic primary election. Primary elections often attract far fewer voters than general elections, yet they play a critical role in determining who will appear on the ballot in November. In many local races, a relatively small number of votes can have a significant impact on the outcome.

For those who prefer to vote early, early voting has already begun and runs through Sunday, June 21.
