Union County voters may use any of these locations for early in-person voting
Union County Board of Elections Administrator Nicole DiRado advises Union County residents that eight locations have been selected for those wishing to cast their vote early, in-person for the 2024 Primary Election. Any registered, Union County voter can use any of these sites to vote in-person, by machine from Wednesday, May 29 through Sunday June 2, 2024.
“New Jersey has expanded voters’ rights by introducing early voting in 2021,” said Ms. DiRado. “We encourage voters to use early voting, or a vote by mail ballot, to cast their vote ahead of Election Day. Making a plan to cast your vote is important and there are now more options in New Jersey than ever before.”

The ballot card will be inserted into the voting machine which begins the process for the voter.
Please note that these locations are for machine voting only. Mail-in ballots cannot be submitted at these locations.
Voters who plan to use a mail-in ballot can deposit it in any of the twenty-four (24) Board of Elections’ secure drop boxes in Union County, return it to the Board of Elections by U.S. Postal Service, or hand-deliver it to the Board of Elections office in Elizabeth by June 4, 2024 at 8pm.
Voters who choose to vote in person on Election Day, June 4, must use their designated polling place.
