2025 WESTCHESTER UNOFFICIAL PRIMARY CANDIDATE LIST

Date:

The 2025 Primary Election is Tuesday, June 24, 2025. Early voting for the Primary Election will be Saturday, June 14, 2025 – Sunday, June 22, 2025. Westchester County tends to be democratic based on voting results in recent elections. Compared to other nearby counties, Westchester County has more democratic voters. Compared to the nation as a whole, Westchester County leans more democratic. Municipalities like Mount Vernon tend to only to have Democratic candidates for City Government, but nearby cities like Yonkers and New Rochelle have both Democrats and Republicans in city government. That said, not all Black Westchester readers are Democrats. While most answered a poll that they are, a good portion of other readers answered that they are Independents, Republicans, or Other. So we reached out to the Westchester County Board of Elections Democratic Chair, and we gathered all the candidates that will be running in the June 24, 2025, Primary and listed them under the respective primaries they are running in. During the primary, you can only vote for the candidates running in the respective party you are registered in…

And your 2025 Westchester County Primary Candidates are….

Note: Names of candidates running unopposed may not appear on this list received from Westchester BOE.
