I voted in the PA primary today. There were a number of contested elections and four ballot questions. I don't know where there is a calendar for all primaries this year.
If you have a link, please post it.

Do you plan to vote in your state's primary, general election (of if you are not in the US, in your nation's election(s) if they have one (or more)), or both?

I voted this morning as well! I voted no on the first two ballot questions and yes on the second two (the equal rights one and there was a local one about making municipal emergency services eligible for loans)

The only competitive race in my area this year ((3) county commissioner slots) was decided during the county convention. My ballot's races are all uncontested, I'm just waiting to figure out who to actually fill in the bubble for vs. writing in me or other protest votes:
  • Governor: other kooks got removed from the ballot, waiting to see when or if Murphy does anything about COVID restriction relaxing
  • State legislature: likely protest votes
  • County commishes and other county offices: nothing against them
  • Town council candidates: tonight there's a council meeting where they will vote on an ordinance to ban cannabis dispensary businesses despite my town voting 69% in favor of 2020's question 1, I have a feeling it will unanimously pass based on Helen Lovejoy's "Think of the children!"

Same here! I voted the same way on the ballot questions. The judicial primaries were competitive, but the row offices only had one candidate each and the township positions were write-in only.

In PA we have elections every year, so yup!  I’m actually running for election as an Auditor for my local township, so it would be pretty sad if I didn’t vote.   xD

Will be interesting to see how the GOP Supreme Court primary, the Dem Superior and Commonwealth Court primaries, and the Dem Philly DA primary go.

Voted in the PA primary today as well. Voted no-no-yes-yes on the constitutional amendments, but I'm expecting yes to win all of them unfortunately. Hopefully Krasner pulls it out in Philly, or else tonight will really suck.

My town is having an election, yeah. Other than that, I don't think there is anything.

Of course, we have a gubernatorial and state and local elections this year. I will be even more motivated to vote if Hirsch Singh, an absolute maniac, gets the GOP nomination for governor. The mailers my household has been receiving from his campaign are the most absurd ones I think I have ever seen, and we get a lot here in New Jersey every year. Granted, elsewhere in the country he is basically just a generic R.

There's pretty much zero chance he'll get nominated. He's barely spent anything and doesn't have any of the county lines.

I figure that he won't. I just had to let off some steam about how mind-boggling his campaign is.  Even the most Trumpian NJ Republicans campaigning in the northern part of the state usually at least try to sound reasonable.

Yes, I will be voting in the New Jersey elections this year, like I always do. It's especially important since the election for my state legislative district is one of the more competitive ones this year.

Municipal primaries. There are elections every year.

There was one election for my city council seat but it went uncontested. That’s about it for me, I’m a small rural county in a small town, our city council in concurrent with the president and mayor isn’t for a few years
