‘Don’t boo, vote’: Here’s whose on the Manhattan midterm elections ballot as early voting begins this weekend

The all-important midterm elections are on Nov. 8, and early voting begins in Manhattan and other parts of New York state this weekend as residents choose who will lead the state government and represent them both in Albany and on Capitol Hill.

Topping all ballots this year is the governor’s race, as Democratic/Working Families incumbent Kathy Hochul seeks her first full term in office against her Republican/Conservative rival, Long Island Congress Member Lee Zeldin. Turnout figures to be especially important in this and other races, as the polls have tightened significantly in this contest over the past several weeks.
