The polls are open in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut with voters across the tri-state area casting their ballot in the race for president.
Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are both trying to succeed President Joe Biden, who announced over the summer that he wouldn't stand for re-election after a poor debate performance.
In addition to the presidential election, there are several local races that are significant. New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand is facing a challenge from Republican Mike Sapraicone, while Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy is up for re-election against Republican Matthew Corey. In New Jersey, Democratic Congressman Andy Kim and Republican Curtis Bashaw are running to fill the seat vacated by former Senator Bob Menendez who stepped down after he was convicted of federal corruption charges.
There are several other local congressional races that could determine control of the House.
