Select polling places are now open for Municipal Party Primary Runoff Elections. Polls, where runoffs are being conducted, will close at 7 p.m., and any voter in line at 7 p.m. is entitled to cast a ballot.
Primary Runoff Elections are only conducted in those cities in which certain party candidates did not receive a majority of the votes cast in the Primary Elections held April 6, 2021. Voters should contact their Municipal Clerk’s Office or local election officials to determine if Primary Runoff Elections are being held in their city today.
As a reminder, crossover voting is not allowed in this election, meaning voters who cast a ballot in one political party’s Primary Election on April 6th cannot legally cast a ballot in a different political party’s Primary Runoff Election today (April 27th). However, voters who did not vote in the Primary Election are still eligible to vote in today's runoff elections.
