What's actually on your June 23 primary ballot in Webster, by party

New York's statewide primary is Tuesday, June 23, and what you will find on your ballot in Webster depends entirely on one thing: the party you are registered with. New York runs a closed primary, which means you can only vote in the primary of the party you are enrolled in. Voters who are not enrolled in a party do not get a primary ballot at all.

That single rule splits Webster voters into three groups this June. Unaffiliated voters have nothing to vote on. Registered Republicans have one contested race. Registered Democrats have three. Those counts reflect how many candidates filed to run in each party's primaries this year, not the size or strength of either party. Here is exactly what each group will see.

First, the deadlines have already passed

Two dates that would have let you change this have already gone by. The deadline to change your party enrollment for this primary was February 14, 2026. The deadline to register to vote was June 13, 2026. Both are in the past, so for June 23 your party status is locked in as it stands now.

If you are not sure which party you are enrolled in, you can check your registration and party online through the New York State Board of Elections voter lookup tool at voterlookup.elections.ny.gov. It will show your enrollment status after you enter your name, date of birth, and county.

If you are not enrolled in a party: nothing

Because this is a closed primary, voters registered without a party affiliation (often called unaffiliated or "blank") will not receive a primary ballot in Webster on June 23. There is no nonpartisan or independent primary ballot to request. The next time these voters cast a ballot is the November general election.

If you are a registered Republican: one race

Webster Republicans have one contested primary on June 23.

State Assembly, District 130. Three Republicans are running for their party's nomination in the Assembly district that includes Webster: Summer L. Johnson, George Dobbins, and Mark C. Johns. The winner advances to the November general election. Mark C. Johns lists a Webster address on the certified candidate list.

That is the only contested Republican primary on a Webster ballot. The statewide Republican races for Governor, Comptroller, and Attorney General each have a single candidate, so there is no Republican primary contest in those.

If you are a registered Democrat: three races

Webster Democrats have three contested primaries on June 23.

State Comptroller (statewide). Every enrolled Democrat in the state, including in Webster, votes in this one. Three candidates are running: incumbent Thomas P. DiNapoli, Drew Warshaw, and Raj Goyle.

U.S. House, New York's 25th Congressional District. Webster sits in NY-25. Three Democrats are running: Robin Wilt, incumbent Joseph D. Morelle, and Sherita S. Traywick.

State Assembly, District 130. Two Democrats are running for the same Webster-area Assembly seat that Republicans are also contesting: Carl Fitzsimmons, who lists a Webster address, and Joseph Lamanna.

What is not on the June 23 ballot

Two races Webster voters may be expecting are not part of this primary, and they are worth flagging to avoid confusion.

State Senate, District 55. There is no primary here. The matchup between Samra G. Brouk and Chris Brown of Webster is set for the November general election, not June.

Webster Town Supervisor. There is no June primary. The race between Alex Scialdone and Sean Hanna is a November general election contest.
