The June primary ballot includes statewide races for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, with local races in some towns. The second primary set for Aug. 23 includes a Special Election for the now-vacant 23rd Congressional seat, left open by the resignation of former U.S. Rep. Tom Reed, (R-Corning) on May 11. The primary was delayed because a lawsuit delayed the implementation of new districts for Congress and the New York State Senate, the commissioners said. Early voting for the Aug. 23 primary will be available from Aug. 13 – 21
