If you have not yet registered, fuggedaboutit. It’s too late for you to vote. You blew it.
By now, all registered voters in New Jersey should have received a ballot. If you did not, or if it’s damaged or lost, email the Morristown County Clerk’s office with full name, date of birth, address, and phone number to request one.
Here is a step-by-step video on how to fill it out, by Morris County Clerk Ann Grossi:
Either mail the ballot at the post office, or take it to any of 16 Drop Boxes across Morris County.
DO IT NOW.
Morristown’s Drop Box has been moved across Court Street, from the entrance of the Morris County Administration & Records Building to outside the county Courthouse side entrance. Look for the large LED sign next to it. Mail-in ballots are collected daily, and will start being counted 10 days before Nov. 3.
Morristown will have only one polling place, Town Hall at 200 South St. NO ONE except the disabled can vote electronically at the polls on Election Day. However, you can go to the polls with a completed, sealed, ballot and put it in the Drop Box there.
If you are registered and do not bring your ballot to the polling place, you will be given a Provisional Paper Ballot to fill out on the spot. In order to avoid fraud, your vote will be cross-checked and counted last among all other votes in New Jersey.
