Create your voting plan now

It's National Voter Education Week! If you are not yet registered to vote in the general election, you still have time, but you must act now.

Tuesday, October 15th is the voter registration deadline for the general election. Not sure if you are registered? Check your status here.

You have three options for voting: absentee voting, in-person early voting, or in-person voting on Election Day.

Here's how to vote early

Essex County Clerk Chris Durkin expects a huge increase in early voting. That's how he wants to vote.

Early voting gives you the convenience and flexibility of a nine-day period in which you can cast your vote in person at a voting machine without having to wait until Election Day.

The Berson Family Center at the South Mountain Recreation Complex is one of ten locations in Essex County where you can vote early. (MONTCLAIR LOCAL)

There are 10 locations where any Essex County voter can cast a ballot during the early voting period – Saturday, Oct. 26 through Sunday, Nov. 3. So if you live in Montclair, early voting locations in West Orange, Bloomfield, or Verona could be convenient for you.

Hours of operation for in-person voting are: Monday-Saturday, 10:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m. and Sunday, 10:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. An appointment is not necessary.

When New Jersey polls close at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, November 5, all early voting results will be released.
