The General Election will be held on Tuesday, November 2.
Union County, NJ – Union County Clerk Joanne Rajoppi reminds voters that their Vote-by-Mail ballot comes in a bright yellow mailing envelope, which contains their ballot, an instructional brochure, a certificate envelope, and a postage-paid envelope for returning their ballot. The certificate envelope is designed to ensure privacy for Vote-by-Mail users.
Voters can choose to return their Vote-by-Mail ballot by U.S. Post. Voters can also deposit their Vote-by-Mail ballot in a designated drop-off box, or hand deliver it to the County Clerk’s offices or the Board of Elections.
“I would also like to advise voters that they may see a party affiliation box to check on their certificate envelope,” explained Ms. Rajoppi. “It is only necessary to fill out that section for Primary elections. As we are now in the General Election phase of the 2021 cycle, voters can leave their party affiliation blank.”
Ms. Rajoppi also advises Vote-by-Mail users to return their ballots as soon as possible, in order to avoid last minute delays.
