Primary Day 2017: Who's On The Ballot, Where To Vote In Princeton
Tuesday, June 6, is also the final day to register as an independent candidate, and unaffiliated voters can vote in the primaries.

PRINCETON, NJ — Princeton voters will know what their final ballot looks like for November’s general elections on Tuesday, June 6. Not only is Tuesday Primary Day in New Jersey, it’s the final day for candidates to file petitions to run independent campaigns for public office. The deadline is 4 p.m.
As of now, Democrats Leticia Fraga and David Cohen are the only two candidates who filed petitions to run for a pair of open council seats. They will run unopposed in the Democratic Primary, and no Republicans filed nominations to run by the April 3 deadline. Unless independent candidates file by Tuesday’s deadline, Fraga and Cohen will be seated on council in January.
The only contested primaries on Princeton voters’ ballots on Tuesday will be in the gubernatorial race.
