Open Buffalo

TODAY IS PRIMARY ELECTION DAY

Your voice matters. Your vote matters.

Polls are open until 9:00 PM, so there's still time to make your voice heard and help shape the future of our communities.

Make a plan to vote and encourage your friends and family to do the same.

REMINDER: VOTE TOMORROW

Elections are an opportunity to make your voice heard and help shape the future of our communities.

The right to vote is deeply connected to our history, culture, and collective journey toward freedom. Generations before us organized, marched, and sacrificed to expand access to the ballot box. Tomorrow, we honor that legacy by showing up and making our voices heard.

Make a plan to vote, encourage your friends and family to participate, and show up for the issues that matter most.

Your vote. Your voice. Your community.

What an incredible morning!

Last week, Movement Morning 2026 brought together community partners, supporters, sponsors, volunteers, and changemakers to celebrate the power of collective action and community leadership.

Thank you to everyone who sponsored, attended, donated, volunteered, and invested in Open Buffalo's mission. Your support helps advance racial, economic, and ecological justice across Buffalo.

The energy was inspiring, and we're excited for what's ahead.
