NEW YORK (PIX11) – The polls are officially open Tuesday for the primary election in New York.
Polls in the state are open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
With a majority of districts in New York heavily Democratic, the winners in Tuesday's races are expected to also signal the outcome of the general election.
The seat grabbing the most attention is the 16th Congressional District in the Bronx and Westchester, where incumbent Rep. Jamaal Bowman is facing off against Westchester County Executive George Latimer.
There are also hotly contested races at the state level, including a challenge by two moderate candidates to unseat Brooklyn Assemblywoman Emily Gallagher.
Another lawmaker facing a challenge on the ballot is Queens Assemblyman Ron Kim, who once publicly criticized former Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
There is also a race for District 35 in Queens to succeed the more than 30-year tenure of outgoing Assemblyman Jeffrion Aubry.
