Voters will be able to head to the polls early to help decide contested local, county, state and federal elections.
Races for town supervisors in Bristol, South Bristol and Naples are contested as are the town justice race in Manchester, the town clerk race in Victor and town board race in West Bloomfield. At the Ontario County level, races for sheriff and coroner are uncontested, although two are vying for the county treasurer job.
In addition to the governor's race, seats in local districts for state Assembly and state Senate are also up for grabs as are two local congressional seats.
Election Day is 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3, but registered voters can cast help decide races before then.
