While New York City's primary election is on Tuesday, June 22, the deadline to change your political party voting affiliation is quickly approaching – Sunday, February 14. New York hosts closed primaries, which means only registered voters who are affiliated with a political party can vote for their respective candidates. Those who are registered as Independent cannot vote in the primary. New voters can register to vote by Friday, May 28. If you would like to register to vote or declare or change your political party affiliation to ensure that you can vote in the upcoming election, click here. And, visit the NYC Board of Election's website here
