While there may have been some confusion about the upcoming primary, Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz has released a statement explaining that there will be no primary in the Bronx on Sept. 18.
He said further that one had been scheduled for that date, but since there is no competition to warrant one, polling places will not be open on Sept. 18.
Election Day, with voting for Bronx district attorney and a State Supreme Court judgeship, will be Tuesday, Nov. 6 and the presidential primary will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 5.
For further information on the elections or absentee ballots, contact Dinowitz’s office at (718) 796-5345.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
