TWO WAYS TO VOTE

In-Person

Polls will be open Tuesday, September 15.

Poll times and locations, when available, will be posted on this website.

If you arrive at the polls and are told that your ballot was already mailed to you, or are told you cannot vote for any reason, ask for a provisional ballot. This means your ballot will be reviewed after all in-person and mailed ballots are processed, and will be counted if it is found to be valid.

By Mail

You can Vote by Mail in this referendum. If you have already requested a ballot to be mailed to you and if your address is the same, you should receive a Vote by Mail ballot automatically before the election.

If you have questions or require assistance, email the County Clerk’s Office at ucvote@ucnj.org or call 908-527-4996.

To request a Vote by Mail ballot, download an English or Spanish application. The county must receive that application in the mail by September 8 to mail you a ballot. After that date, you can deliver your completed application by 3 p.m. on September 14 to receive your ballot in person.

When you receive your Vote By Mail ballot, fill it out and either:

Mail it in with a postmark on or before September 15.

Take it to a drop box at the County Clerk’s Office at one of two locations:

Office of the Union County Clerk, 2 Broad Street, Elizabeth

Office of the Union County Clerk, Fraser Building, 300 North Avenue East, Westfield

Note: Mail-in ballots cannot be submitted at polling places.
