Today is Primary Day in New York City and there’s a hot race for City Council on the Upper West Side. We’ve posted a few ridiculous photos from the campaign below. To find your voting location, click here. Our guide to the race is here. We’ll have an update later about who won.

Please limit comments to 150 words and keep them civil and relevant to the article at hand. Comments are closed after six days. Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate.
