You have three ways to vote – vote by mail, in-person early voting or in person on Election Day.
How to Vote Early
Essex County Clerk Chris Durkin expects to see a huge increase in early voting. It’s also how he plans to vote.
With early voting, you have the convenience and flexibility of a nine-day period where you can cast your ballot in person, using a voting machine, without having to wait until Election Day.
There are 10 locations where any Essex County voter can go and vote during the early voting period – Saturday, October 26 through Sunday, November 3. So if you live in Montclair, early voting locations in West Orange, Bloomfield or Verona may be convenient to you.
Hours for in person voting are: Monday-Saturday, 10:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m. and Sunday, 10:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m. No appointment is necessary.
When the polls close in New Jersey on Tuesday, November 5 at 8 p.m., all the early votes results become public.
