Voting today in Massachusetts’ primary election throughout Greater Westfield

Polls are open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. today throughout Greater Westfield for the state primary election.

There aren’t many decisions for voters to make, however. Republicans have a three-way race for their party’s nomination for U.S. Senate, among Robert J. Antonellis of Medford, Ian Cain of Quincy and John Deaton of Swansea. Other than that one contested race, the only other names on local Republican ballots will be the incumbent state representatives running for re-election: Nicholas Boldyga (R-Southwick) on ballots in Southwick, Montgomery and Russell; and Kelly Pease (R-Westfield) on ballots in most precincts of Westfield. Neither Boldyga nor Pease has a primary election challenger. In the small section of Westfield that shares a House district with West Springfield, there is no Republican candidate for representative.

Democratic ballots feature more candidates, but no contested races. Incumbent U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Cambridge) is the only person seeking nomination for that six-year seat; she will face the Republican nominee in November. Others seeking the nomination for their current seats are U.S. Rep. Richard Neal (D-Springfield), Governor’s Councilor Tara Jacobs (D-North Adams), Clerk of Courts Laura Gentile (D-East Longmeadow) and Register of Deeds Cheryl Coakley-Rivera (D-Springfield). The region’s two incumbent state senators are running for reelection with no opponents: John Velis (D-Westfield) on ballots in Westfield, Montgomery and Russell; and Paul Mark (D-Becket) on ballots in Southwick.

There are no candidates for any offices on the Libertarian Party ballots in Greater Westfield.

Early voting was available by mail and in person in all communities. Any registered voter who has not already voted can cast a ballot at the traditional Election Day polls today. Registered members of the Democratic, Libertarian or Republican parties can vote in their party’s primary election only. Voters who are registered but unenrolled in a party — also called “independent” — can choose any one of the three party ballots.

Residents of Southwick, Montgomery and Russell vote at their respective town halls: 454 College Highway, Southwick; 161 Main Road, Montgomery; and 65 Main St., Russell.
