Today, the state primary election is taking place throughout Greater Westfield, with polls open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. However, there aren’t many decisions for voters to make. Republicans have a three-way race for their party’s nomination for U.S. Senate, while Democratic ballots feature more candidates but no contested races. Early voting was available by mail and in person in all communities, but any registered voter who has not already voted can cast a ballot at the traditional Election Day polls today.
In terms of key candidates, Elizabeth Warren is the only person seeking the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate, while U.S. Rep. Richard Neal and other incumbents are also seeking nominations for their current seats. In terms of local Republican candidates, incumbents Nicholas Boldyga and Kelly Pease are running for re-election and do not have primary challengers.
There are no candidates for any offices on the Libertarian Party ballots in Greater Westfield. For information on polling places in Westfield and surrounding towns, residents can visit the Secretary of State website. It is important to note that registered members of the Democratic, Libertarian, or Republican parties can vote in their party’s primary election only, while unenrolled voters can choose any one of the three party ballots.
Overall, the primary election in Greater Westfield offers limited choices for voters, with most incumbents running for re-election without primary challengers. It is important for registered voters to participate in the election process and cast their ballots at the polls today.
