Long Island voters are hitting the polls Tuesday to cast ballots deciding the next president, four congressional representatives, 31 New York State legislators, some town-level races, and four propositions on Election Day.
More than a half million votes were cast during the nine-day early voting period, according to unofficial early tallies released by the New York State Board of Elections showing 289,427 in Suffolk County and 284,761 in Nassau County — with voter turnout up 13% statewide over last year.
