Information on this page refers to the Municipal Election, April 4, 2023. In a Muncipal Election, voters decide who will serve in city, town, and village government and on school and community college boards. In some races, candidates are unopposed--only one candidate is running for that office. Some races, however, are contested---there are more candidates running for that office than can hold it. Your vote helps decide who will serve as our local elected officials for the next four years.
