A letter from the New York Conference of Mayors’ Executive Director Peter Baynes says, “no further information regarding the rescheduling of such elections is presently available.”

The letter says NYCOM is awaiting guidance regarding the timing, location and manner of the elections from the governor’s office, as the executive order indicated would be forthcoming.

“As a way to avoid the complications of holding the election on the same day as the June 23 presidential and state primaries, NYCOM has requested that the governor reschedule the postponed village elections for June 16 (which is the statutory date for this year’s regularly scheduled June village elections),” Baynes wrote.

Additionally, the Executive Order has postponed the circulation, filing, and collection of all designating and independent nominating petitions. NYCOM staff will be updating the villages with clarifying guidance as soon as we are able.
