Early in-person voting begins today throughout New Jersey, with federal races topping the primary ballots to choose Democratic and Republican nominees for the fall midterms.
Democrat U.S. Sen. Cory Booker’s seat is open, as are all of the dozen House seats. Booker has no party opposition, though four Republicans are vying for the chance to unseat him in the November general election. More than 228,000 people voted using mail-in ballots through Thursday, close to 81% of them Democrats.
Six days of in-person voting start at 10 a.m. Polling places are open until 8 p.m. today, Friday, Saturday, Monday and Tuesday, and 6 p.m. on Sunday. Voters can cast ballots at any polling location in their home counties.
In-person voting at polls will take place on Election Day, June 2 ,from 6 a.m.-8 p.m. Voters can check their mailed sample ballots or use the state’s online locator to find their polling sites.
Mailed ballots must be postmarked by June 2 or placed in a secure drop box in a voter’s home county. County officials must receive ballots by June 8 for them to be recorded.
