Tomorrow, New Yorkers will head to the polls to vote in the Democratic and Republican primaries for mayor.

With Anthony Wiener's campaign drama and Mayor Bloomberg calling the leading Democrat's campaign racist, things certainly haven't been quiet.

The primary winners will face each other in the general election in November. If no candidate gets 40 percent of the vote in a party's primary, then a runoff between the top two vote-getters will be held Oct. 1.

Mayoral Candidates:

Democrats:

Sal Albanese, attorney and former City Council member
Randy Credico, political satirist and activist
Bill de Blasio, New York City public advocate, former City Council member
Neal Grimaldi, attorney and former public school teacher
John Liu, New York City comptroller, former City Council member
Christine Quinn, City Council speaker
Erick Salgado, pastor and businessman
Bill Thompson, former New York City comptroller
Anthony Weiner, former U.S. House member

Republicans:

John Catsimatidis, billionaire businessman, supermarket mogul
Joseph Lhota, former chairman of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and former deputy mayor in Giuliani administration
George McDonald, founder of the Doe Fund, a nonprofit that works with homeless people
