Princeton voters will go to the polls June 4 to choose candidates to run for an array of elected offices – from the municipal level to the state level – in the Democratic and Republican party primaries.
The polling locations will be open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. The winners will face each other in the Nov. 5 general election.
In the Princeton Council race, Democratic voters will be asked to choose two candidates from among a field of three – incumbent Council member Tim Quinn, Mia Sacks and Michelle Pirone Lambros – for their party’s nomination.
Quinn, who is completing his first term on the Princeton Council, has lived in Princeton since 1990. He serves on the Planning Board and prior to his election to the Princeton Council, he served two terms on the Princeton Public Schools’ Board of Education.
Sacks, who grew up in Princeton and graduated from Princeton High School in 1983, serves on the Planning Board. She is the board secretary for Sustainable Princeton, and is the vice chairman of the Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee.
Pirone Lambros was born in Princeton and moved to Montgomery Township as a child. She recently moved back to Princeton. She serves on the Zoning Board of Adjustment and also serves on the board of the Princeton Merchants Association.
