Election Season 2025 is under way! In the Bronx, both the office of Bronx Borough President and the office of New York City Mayor are up for election, as well as some other local seats.

Find your polling place.

Important Dates

The New York State Primary is Tuesday, June 24, 2025! Choose your party’s candidate for New York City Mayor, Bronx Borough President, and other offices. There are also primaries for some City Council seats. In New York, you must be a registered member of a political party to vote in the primary.

  • Voter registration deadline is Saturday, June 14.
  • Early voting runs June 14 – June 22. Learn more.

As a reminder, New York State now uses Ranked Choice Voting! When you vote, you will have the option to rank candidates in the order you like. You do not have to rank all candidates. For Ranked Choice Voting information in many languages, click here.

Voting is one of the most effective ways to make your voice heard in government and affect real change in your local policies. Make sure to vote this upcoming election!
