Two trustee seats are up for election, and incumbent trustees Janice Abdo-Rott and Thomas Pilewski, both of the Citizens Party, will seek reelection unopposed.

Incumbent Village Justice William Bartlett, of the Citizens Party, will also seek reelection to a four-year term unopposed.

Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, March 21 at the village center, 1 Arkie Albanese Avenue in Manlius.
