Tuesday is Primary Election Day in New York.
Polls open from 6 AM – 9 PM.
If you are in line by 9 PM, you can cast a ballot.
Important decisions about the future of our environment will be determined by this year’s election, and the time has come to express our power at the ballot box.
The New York League of Conservation Voters Gives Green is proud to endorse 116 candidates for the 2026 election cycle, recognizing a strong slate of environmental champions running for local, state, and federal office.
When you cast your ballot for an NYLCV Gives Green-endorsed candidate, you help elect leaders who are committed to fighting climate change, protecting our natural resources, improving air quality, and making communities more resilient.
“At a time when New York’s climate commitments face growing challenges, strong leadership in Albany matters more than ever,” said Julie Tighe, President of the New York League of Conservation Voters. “These candidates have demonstrated their commitment to protecting the progress our state has made while continuing to advance solutions that create healthier communities, a stronger economy, and a more sustainable future.”
Our sister organization, NYLCV Education Fund, has a helpful voting website where you can learn about your voting rights, where to vote, and more.
It is important to make a plan to ensure you are able to vote on Tuesday.
