2022 primary

The deadline was put in place to close a loophole allowing voters to change parties up until the day of the August 23 primary.

There are three days of early voting left in Onondaga County before primary election day on Tuesday. Wednesday, we heard from Rob Astorino and Andrew Giuliani who made campaign stops in Syracuse. Today, we check in with Harry Wilson.

They appeared within three hours of each other as they crossed the state.

The position can prove to be an important one. Twice in the past fifteen years, a lieutenant governor in New York found themselves suddenly elevated to governor.

More than 700 primary voters have already chosen which candidate they’d like to see for governor on the November ballot.

It’s less than three weeks until New York state’s primary for governor, and so far, it seems the contest is Governor Kathy Hochul’s to lose. While she’s ahead of her two challengers, Hochul does have some potential vulnerabilities.

New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, who is running to the left of Hochul, and Long Island Congressman Tom Suozzi, a moderate democrat to the right of the governor, ganged up to attack Hochul on the rising crime rates, and a deal she struck to keep the Buffalo Bills playing in Western New York.

Republican candidates for governor continue to visit cities across the state ahead of the primary, which is just three weeks away. Early voting in Onondaga County actually begins less than two weeks from now.

New York State’s gubernatorial primary is less than four weeks away, so the Syracuse area can expect to see the candidates make campaign stops as they crisscross the state.

The governor’s choice of a new second in command comes three weeks after former lieutenant governor Brian Benjamin was indicted on federal corruption charges and resigned from office.
