Polls will be open in Winthrop from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. Sept. 3 for the state primary election.
With few contested elections on the ballot, a light turnout is expected throughout the state.
On the Democratic state primary ballot, a number of incumbent candidates are running unopposed for reelection, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, Congresswoman Katherine Clark, Governor’s Councilor Terrence Kennedy, state Senator Lydia Edwards, and state Representative Jeff Turco.
There are contested races on the Democratic side for Clerk of the Supreme Judicial Court between Erin Murphy and Allison Cartwright, and for Clerk of the Superior Court (Civil Business) between John E. Powers, III and Faustina Gabriel.
The Republican primary ballot has a three-way race to challenge Warren in the U.S. Senate between Robert Antonellis, Ian Cain, and John Deaton.
With the exception of Precinct 4, all voters in Winthrop vote at the Old Middle School. Registered voters in Precinct 4 vote on Golden Drive.
