New York officials canceled the state’s Democratic presidential primary, which had been set for June 23, in an attempt to curb the spread of the CCP virus.
While Democratic members of New York’s State Board of Elections voted April 27 to cancel the presidential primary, the state’s congressional and state-level contests will be held on June 23 as planned. It means, however, that New York is the first state to outright cancel its primary after several other states suspended theirs. The primary had already been delayed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo from its original April 28 date.
