Early voting in New Jersey begins third day – New Jersey Globe
Good morning, New Jersey.
Today is the third of five days of in-person early voting for the 2024 primary election, with polling places across New Jersey operating from 10 AM to 8 PM.
Early voting centers will be open today and tomorrow from 10 AM to 8 PM, and on Sunday from 10 AM to 6 PM
As long as voters are in line by the close of early voting each day, they may vote regardless of how long the lines are. Voters should never be asked to leave and come back the next day.
In New Jersey, you may only vote in the primary of your party affiliation; the deadline to switch parties has passed. However, unaffiliated voters may declare an affiliation at the polls and vote in either the Democratic or Republican primaries.
This is New Jersey’s third election cycle to use early voting.
Voters may cast their ballots at any polling place in the county of their residence between today and Sunday:
Atlantic County Early Voting Poll Locations
Bergen County Early Voting Poll Locations
Burlington County Early Voting Poll Locations
Camden County Early Voting Poll Locations

First-time voters who registered by mail might need to provide identification at the polls.
Anyone who has already received a vote-by-mail ballot may not vote by machine but can seek a replacement mail-in ballot from their county clerk, or request a provisional ballot on Election Day.
With less than one week to go before Election Day, voters should casting vote-by-mail-in ballots consider skipping the U.S. Postal Service and using secure ballot drop boxes in the county where they reside:

Attorney General Matt Platkin said on Tuesday that the state’s Voter Protection Initiative will watch for voting rights and civil rights violations during early voting and on Election Day.
“We will do everything in our power to ensure that every eligible voter is able to exercise this fundamental right without facing intimidation, discrimination, or harassment,” Platkin said. “We have built the infrastructure to promptly resolve voting-related issues, and we will hold accountable anyone who attempts to disrupt our democratic process.”
The Office of Public Integrity and Accountability will monitor allegations of voter intimidation, election fraud and interference, illegal electioneering, and other criminal violations.
The OPIA has spent the last four years pursuing election fraud charges filed against Paterson Councilmen Alex Mendez and Michael Jackson; the two were re-elected earlier this month while under indictment and awaiting trial. An investigation into racist flyers in the 2017 elections in Edison and Hoboken has turned into cold cases that the OPIA has been unable to crack.

Superior Court judges across the state will be available through Sunday to conduct remote hearings if New Jerseyans believe they were improperly rejected from early voting.
Voters should not leave their polling location just because an election worker says they don’t appear on their rolls. Instead, they should contact election officials to determine the status of their registration. A provisional ballot can be requested on Election Day, but that won’t fix the problem; if a name does not show up on the voter list, and the issue is not addressed, election officials will likely reject the ballot.
Instead, voters who believe a mistake was made can request to appear before a judge. This can be done remotely by video or telephone; it’s not necessary to go to the courthouse, although that is an option.
Election officials will arrange for a judge to hear election-related issues on the same day.
Early voting centers are open on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 10 AM to 8 PM and on Sunday from 10 AM to 6 PM. Click HERE to find an early voting location.

NEW JERSEY — Snowfall ranging from a light dusting to up to 2 inches is anticipated for New Jersey Friday night into Saturday, though some uncertainty about how the storm could unfold means that amounts may be higher in areas, according to the latest forecast.
Northwest Jersey is expected to see 1 to 2 inches, with “a slushy coating to up to an inch” of snow predicted for the rest of the Garden State, according to the National Weather Service. Light precipitation will come in during the morning into the afternoon, transitioning to mainly snow overnight.
A Hazardous Weather Outlook has been issued for the northeast corner of the state through Friday night, as travel conditions could become slippery.

“The danger is the snow can quickly erupt and come down at a steady clip in some areas during the afternoon and evening rush hour on Friday in the Northeast,” AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said. This includes the metro areas of New York City and Philadelphia, he said.
Forecasters said there is some uncertainty with this storm depending on how it plays out. The National Weather Service called it “a difficult forecast,” and noted that snowfall amounts could be higher than forecast.

“Conditions around New York City are tricky,” Rayno said. “They can get a coating to an inch or two of snow from the clipper storm, perhaps a bit more if the coastal storm tracks farther west, or they could be in a rip-off zone where nothing to a few flurries occur.”
Saturday marks the first day of winter, and snow will end by late morning, forecasters say. Cold temperatures will linger through the weekend.
Here’s the latest forecast.
