ALBANY—No more griping about debates, qualifications, campaign donations or garbage plates. It's Primary Day.

Polls are open until 9 p.m., with a series of Democratic and Republican primaries for the state Legislature and, most visibly, an insurgent bid by Zephyr Teachout and Tim Wu to oust Governor Andrew Cuomo and his designated running mate, Kathy Hochul.

Teachout and Wu will criss-cross Manhattan in a last-minute dash for attention and votes. Cuomo, who hopes to win by a crushing margin against his little-known opponent, is leaning on a get-out-the-vote operation built around SEIU 1199, the health care union, and the Hotel Trades Council.

Here are seven things to watch as the returns roll in.
