§ 4-118. Notice of primary election; publication of by board of
elections. 1. Each county board of elections shall publish in the week
ending on the Saturday preceding a primary election a notice specifying
the day of such primary election, the hours during which it will be held
and the public offices for which nominations are to be made and the
party positions which are to be filled at such primary elections. Such
publication shall be in two newspapers published within the county. If
the county contains a city or cities, at least one of such newspapers
shall be published in the city, or the largest city, if there be more
than one.

2. The board of elections of every county containing a city, other
than the board of elections of the city of New York, shall publish on
the day of each primary election, in two newspapers within each city in
such county, representing the major political parties, a list of the
polling places designated within such city, referring to the election
districts by their numbers and wards or assembly districts. Such list
shall identify those polling places which do not provide access to
handicapped voters. If the newspaper is an evening newspaper, such
notice shall be published on the day prior to such primary election. If
in an election district the primary of a party is uncontested, such
notice shall include, in a place where they clearly refer to the proper
district and polling place, the words "........................(insert
name of party) primary uncontested." If in an election district the
primaries of all parties are uncontested, such notice shall include, in
lieu of the address of the polling place, the words "Polls not open. All
primaries uncontested." Such publication in such newspapers by the board
of elections of the city of New York shall be at least one-half page in
size and in lieu of the information otherwise required by this
subdivision, shall set forth both in English and such other languages as
such board deems appropriate the date of the election, the hours the
polls are open and the phone number to call for information about
location of polling places, their accessibility to the handicapped and
any other subjects which such board deems appropriate.
