The Saturdays are in addition to regular weekday hours. While visiting the Board of Elections office, voters must wear masks and observe social distance.
Voters choosing to drop off their ballot in person are reminded that they must sign a register, and produce a New Jersey Driver’s License or New Jersey Issued Identification. In addition, voters may bear their own ballot and ballots of three other voters. It is important that bearers sign the bearer portion of the outside envelope in the presence of the voter.

The Primary Election is being conducted primarily through by Vote-by-Mail, by order of New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

The only exception is for voters who cannot vote on a paper ballot will be afforded the opportunity to vote on a machine, after they have certified that they cannot vote on a paper ballot.
