Madison Candidates Cast Primary Votes as Polling Continues Until 8 p.m.

UPDATED AT 6:52 p.m.–Polling locations throughout the borough opened today at 6 a.m. and will remain  open until 8 p.m. for the primary election.

In Madison, two names are on the ballot for a pair of Borough Council seats on Republican primary ballots, and one name on Democratic primary ballots.

Incumbent council member and current council president Jeannie Tsukamoto is joined on the Republican primary ballot by Rob Catalanello. The lone Democrat who submitted a petition to run on the Democratic ballot was Bob McDowell.

The two seats for council are for expiring terms currently held by Tsukamoto and Democrat Astri Baillie. Baillie announced in early March that she would not be running for what would have been her fourth term.

The general election will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 2.

Catalanello voted in the Chase Room of the Madison Public Library at 39 Keep St., polling location for Districts 5 and 13, around 6 p.m. with wife Brenda, daughter Isabel, and son Peter by his side.

McDowell voted at 7 a.m. at North Star Athletic Club located at 95 North St., the polling site for Districts 2, 4 and 10.
