Voters in Nashua are heading to the polls Tuesday for the city’s mayoral primary.

Six candidates are running, and the top two vote getters will face off in the city’s general election in November.

Aldermen Jim Donchess, David Deane, and Dan Moriarty are all running for the office.

Local businessmen Mike Broderick and Doug Carroll and former Greater Nashua Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Chris Williams round out the field.

The city’s first contested mayoral race in eight years has been marked by record fundraising.

Donchess and Williams have each raised more than $100,000 heading into today’s primary.
