A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. New York utilizes a closed primary process, in which the selection of a party's candidates in an election is limited to registered party members.[3][4]

For information about which offices are nominated via primary election, see this article.

Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.


LiPetri said public safety was a key priority of his campaign: "As an Assemblyman, during the height of the ‘Defund the Police’ movement, I was the only elected official on Long Island who voted against ALL anti-police laws. ... I was one of the first to warn of the impact [bail reform laws] would have on our communities."  


LiPetri said of immigration reform, "I will work to expand and modernize legal pathways for merit-based immigration ... and demand that only true asylum cases are heard on the spot. We will have physical barriers at all critical points along the border, fully fund biometric systems, and have tighter controls and oversight on our visa process."


LiPetri said he would make the district more affordable by repealing the SALT tax cap, encouraging entrepreneurship, and offering new tax incentives for working mothers and families.
