March 19 is election day in many local villages. Unlike most elections, villages directly administer their elections rather than the county board. Citizens should check with their local village hall for details on polling locations and hours. Locally, there is voting today in the Villages of Athens, Catskill, Coxsackie, and Tannersville in Greene County, and in the Village of Chatham in Columbia County. Voting begins next week in the presidential primary, and that voting is run by the county board of elections.
