Vote By Mail Applications
In New Jersey, any voter can now vote by mail in any election. You do not need a reason to Vote by Mail. Don't feel like going to the polls? Simply vote by mail. Now there is "no excuse" not to vote!

A voter may vote by mail by completing the Application for Vote by Mail Ballot (see below), and returning the application to their County Clerk.

To receive your ballot by mail, the application must be received by the County Clerk 7 days prior to the election.

A voter may also apply in person to the County Clerk until 3:00 p.m., the day before the election.

The County Clerk cannot accept faxed or emailed copies of a Application for Vote by Mail Ballot, unless you are a Military or Overseas Voter, since an original signature is required.



But it would still have to happen twice in two general elections held three weeks apart. I can't help but think that if this was a place like Wisconsin nationally folks would get worked up over this. Is everyone really THAT afraid of the our Governor? I'm not - I think he's a bully and a joke. But he's waved is scepter and said so be it - and us peons have to just take this waste of money. So irrirated.
