3 Ways to Vote This November General Election

Attention New Jersey Voters! The November 8th General Election is fast approaching, and New Jerseyans have three easy ways to vote:

1. At polling places on election day
2. In-person early voting
3. Vote by mail ballot

Remember, the voter registration deadline for this upcoming General Election is October 18. Register to vote here if you haven’t done so already!

At Local Polling Places on Election Day

Registered voters can cast their ballot in person at their polling place, from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Election Day, November 8. Accommodations will be made for voters with disabilities. Go to VOTE.NJ.GOV for polling places, listed on the Polling Locations page.

For Morristown residents, our town is separated into 4 wards and 4 districts.

In-Person Early Voting

This option enables all registered voters to cast their ballot in person, using a voting machine, during a nine-day period prior to Election Day.

Voters can choose to vote, in person, when it’s most convenient for their schedule. No matter where a voter lives in their county, they can cast their specific ballot at any of their county’s designated in-person early voting locations.

County early voting locations can be found at VOTE.NJ.GOV.

Morristown will offer early voting from October 29th through November 6th in the Morristown Municipal Building, 200 South Street, Morristown 07963.

In-person early voting locations will be open from Saturday, October 29 through Sunday, November 6. Hours will be Monday – Saturday, 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m., and Sunday 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. No appointment is necessary. Accommodations will be made for voters with disabilities.

Vote By Mail Ballot

Registered voters can apply for a vote by mail ballot by following the instructions found at VOTE.NJ.GOV or contacting their County Clerk.

Returning a vote by mail ballot is once again as easy as VOTE, SIGN, SEAL, RETURN. Return options include:

• Mail: It must be postmarked on or before 8 p.m. November 8 and received by their county Board of Elections on or before November 14.
• Secure Ballot Drop Box: Place the ballot in one of their county’s secure ballot drop boxes by 8 p.m. November 8. Drop box locations can be found at VOTE.NJ.GOV. (Morristown’s is located at the County Administration & Records Building, 10 Court Street, outside the main entrance).
• Board of Elections Office: Deliver the ballot in person to the county Board of Elections office by 8 p.m. November 8. County Election Officials' contact information can be found at VOTE.NJ.GOV.
• NOTE: Vote-by-mail ballots CAN NOT be returned to polling places or early voting locations.
