Election Day is Tuesday, June 25. On that day, for ED1, the polling place is the Brighton Farmers Market, 1435 Westfall Road, Rochester, NY 14618.
Early voting is happening now through June 23, and voters can use any early voting location. In Brighton, a popular early voting site is Empire State University at 680 Westfall Road. For information on locations and hours for early voting, click here.
Two candidates are supported by Justice for Brighton: Manish Dixit and Tyelise Dorsey-Patros. Both are incumbent Committee members who have served on the Committee for several years. Tyelise is an educator who teaches Spanish and English as a New Language (ENL), while Manish is a software development manager. Both candidates are raising children in Brighton.
The balance of the candidates in ED1 are supported by Democrats for Brighton, an authorized multi-candidate committee with the dubious distinction of running an all-white slate of 31 candidates across Brighton, as documented in the article Whiter Than A Trump Rally.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is misleading for any campaign literature to imply candidates were formally designated. No such process exists for County Committee candidates!
