You can also vote early in person until June 21. The Roosevelt Island early vote location is 440 East 26 Street.

Why doesn't Roosevelt Island have its own early voting site?!? https://t.co/wtn8meSzSb

Good question.

The sole election on the ballot for Roosevelt Island is the Democratic Party Primary for Congress. The candidates are:

• Incumbent Carolyn Maloney
• Suraj Patel,
• Peter Harrison and 
• Lauren Ashcraft

I spoke with two of the Democratic Party Primary Candidates, Suraj Patel



and Lauren Ashcraft,



at last Saturday's Roosevelt Island Farmers Market.

There is a NY 12 Democratic Party Primary Congressional Forum this evening.

NYC! This Monday, plan to join our live forum with the Democratic primary candidates for the 12th Congressional District, moderated by Freelancers Union President @RLEspinal. pic.twitter.com/77rPvH5uIl
