To determine which poll to use for your address, use the state's Poll Locator search tool.

If you arrive at a polling location on referendum day and are told your ballot was mailed to you, ask for a provisional ballot. This allows your vote to be counted once the mailed ballots are processed and your voter eligibility is double-checked.

Voting By Mail

Voting By Mail has become a popular method for casting a ballot. It allows voters to avoid lines at the polls, the risk of inclement weather, and other inconveniences that can get in the way on referendum day.

On Nov. 15, the county sent Vote By Mail ballots to Montvale residents who have active requests to vote that way. If you expected one but did not get it, check your status by contacting the Bergen County Clerk’s office at 201-336-7020 or electionsclerk@co.bergen.us. Residents who are not signed up for Vote By Mail, but wish to be, can apply without specifying a reason by submitting an application. Make that request as soon as possible to safeguard against postal delays, and know that the application must be in the county's office by Tuesday, Dec. 7 for a ballot to be sent to you for the Dec. 14 referendum.

Ballots submitted by mail must be postmarked by Dec. 14. Remember to read the ballot closely and follow all instructions in order to make certain your vote is properly cast. A voter can track his/her mailed ballots online by creating an account with the state's Voter Registration System.
