Important NJ Primary Election (July 7) Updates

PRIMARY ELECTION UPDATE

Governor Murphy announced that elections that take place on July 7, 2020, shall be conducted primarily via vote-by-mail ballots, which will automatically be sent to all “Active” registered Democratic and Republican voters. Voters do not need to submit an application to receive a vote-by-mail ballot.

  • All vote-by-mail return envelopes and vote-by-mail applications shall have prepaid postage.

  • To the extent possible, each county shall procure at least 5 secure ballot drop boxes and place them in locations that are readily accessible to the registered voters within the county. 

  • Each county shall open a minimum of at least 1 polling place in each municipality. Provided that sufficient poll workers are available, each county shall open a minimum of 50 percent of its polling places, and may open more than the minimum number of polling places. 

  • Any voter who appears at a polling place on the day of the July primary shall vote via a provisional ballot, except that a voter with disabilities may vote on an ADA-accessible voting machine.
