Your Local 2011 Primary Voting Guide

The June primary will take place Tuesday from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. throughout the state. Locally, candidates have filed in both parties for the four seats in East Windsor and the two in Hightstown. But with no filers in Cranbury, it’ll be up to voters to write in the name of the candidate they’d like to see.
