After a campaign season overshadowed by a deadly pandemic and Black Lives Matter protests Yonkers’ Primary Day is here.

Tuesday marks the final day of in-person voting and the postmark deadline for absentee ballots.

Polls are open today, June 23 from 6am-9pm.

Candidates for president, Congress, New York State Legislature, and local offices are vying for nominations.

But don’t expect all races to be called by Tuesday night as in years’ past.

The suspense of awaiting results may last days, weeks or even months.

The Westchester County Board of Elections has processed exponentially more absentee ballots this cycle compared to primaries four years ago.

They’ll be counted manually and potentially in the company of so-called watchers from campaigns who may raise objections.

Voters who didn’t receive absentee ballots can still vote in person Tuesday.

The hot race is this year has high ranking House Member Eliot Engel is locked in a tight race against insurgent Jamaal Bowman.

Neither contender opted for absentee or early voting.

Engel is set to cast his ballot Tuesday in Riverdale; Bowman in Yonkers.
