Also on every Hudson County ballot: U.S. Senate, your U.S. House district and any statewide public questions.
Hudson sample ballots do not print commissioner district numbers, so districts are labeled by the towns they cover. Most districts have no Republican nominee. Aaron Weiner runs by petition.
Party labels as printed by the county clerk (R = Republican, D = Democratic, I = independent, nominated by petition).
Only county races are listed. Your ballot also has U.S. Senate, your U.S. House district, any public questions and, in many towns, mayor, council, school board and fire district races; those are in the county clerk's list linked above. Your exact ballot is the sample ballot the county clerk mails you.
One candidate per seat on the list (write-ins may still be possible).
