To vote in New Jersey, you have three main options: vote by mail (ballot), use in-person early voting, or vote at your polling place on Election Day. Here’s how to locate your specific polling location and ballot options:
- Find your polling place and election details
- Use the New Jersey Division of Elections polling place search to locate your assigned polling location for Election Day, as polling locations are set by county and can change. You’ll enter your address to find the correct polling place and receive any relevant instructions.
* You can also check your sample ballot for the polling location listed there, or contact your county Board of Elections for direct assistance.
- How to vote options
- Vote by mail: Request a mail-in ballot or use an absentee process if eligible, and return your completed ballot by mail or in person at designated drop-off sites or county offices. Drop boxes are available in many counties for early returns.
* In-person early voting: Many counties offer early voting at multiple locations with extended hours prior to Election Day. Check your county’s early voting sites and hours through the county elections office or the state portal.
* Election Day voting: If not voting by mail or early vote, go to your assigned polling location on Election Day and cast your vote using the ballot style for your precinct.
- County-specific resources (examples)
- Burlington County: Provides a voter hotline and links to polling place search; sample ballots and “Election Results” are available.
* Monmouth County: Lists designated in-person early voting locations for the 2025 General Election.
* Morris County: Lists Election Day polling places; also notes mail-in options.
What you’ll need
- Bring acceptable photo ID if required by your county or if asked by poll workers on Election Day.
- If you’re voting by mail, ensure your ballot is returned by the specified deadline and that it is received by the deadline; some offices require postmarks by Election Day, while others accept drop-offs up to close of polls. Check your county’s guidance.
If you’d like, share your county or ZIP code, and I can guide you to the exact polling place search page and provide any immediate deadlines or hours for your area.
