Six sites are confirmed and a seventh site will be added. Union County Board of Elections Administrator Nicole DiRado advises Union County residents that six locations have been selected for those wishing to cast their vote early in person for the 2021 General Election. Any registered, Union County voter can use any of these sites to vote in-person, by machine from Saturday, October 23 through Sunday, October 31. A seventh location will be added and announced in the coming weeks. "New Jersey has expanded voters' rights by introducing early voting for the 2021 General Election," said Ms. DiRado. "We encourage voters to use early voting, or a vote by mail ballot, to cast their vote ahead of Election Day. Making a plan to cast your vote is important and there are now more options in New Jersey than ever before." The six confirmed locations are: All of these early voting locations will be open during the following hours: Saturday, October 23, 10am - 8pm Sunday, October 24, 10am - 6pm Monday, October 25, 10am - 8pm Tuesday, October 26, 10am - 8pm Wednesday, October 27, 10am - 8pm Thursday, October 28, 10am - 8pm Friday, October 29, 10am - 8pm Saturday, October 30, 10am - 8pm Sunday, October 31, 10am - 6pm Upon arriving at an early voting location, voters will sign in on an electronic poll book. The electronic poll book will print a bar code on the ballot card so the voting machine knows which ballot to activate. Voters will then insert their ballot card into the voting machine in order to cast their vote. Please note that these locations are for machine voting only. Vote by mail ballots cannot be submitted at these locations. Voters who plan to use a vote by mail ballot can deposit it in any of the Board of Elections secure drop boxes in Union County, return it to the Board of Elections by U.S. Postal Service, or hand-deliver it to the Board of Elections office in Elizabeth by November 2, 2021 at 8pm. Voters who choose to vote in person on Election Day, November 2, must use their designated polling place.
