New Yorkers headed to the polls Tuesday for the city’s primary election, with voting taking place from 6 a.m. until 9 p.m. State election law allows any voter who is in line by the time polls close to remain and cast their ballot. Because New York operates under a closed primary system, only voters enrolled in a political party may vote in that party’s primary. Residents can verify their polling place through the New York City Board of Elections.
