Burlington County Voters Should Check for Polling Location Changes
Burlington County election officials are reminding residents who are planning to vote in the upcoming November 3 General Election to double-check their polling location and voting districts.
All voters are encouraged to review their sample ballot for their assigned voting district and polling location before going to the polls on Election Day. Voters can also check their assigned polling location with an online search tool at https://voter.svrs.nj.gov/polling-place-search or by calling the Burlington County Elections Hotline at 609-265-VOTE (8683).
Voters are also encouraged to bring their sample ballot with them to the polls during the early voting period or on Election Day for a faster check-in.
“Voting is a fundamental right, and we have taken steps to ensure voters can exercise that right in safe, secure and accessible locations,” said Burlington County Elections Board Chair Heather Cheesman. “Voters also have the option to request a vote-by-mail ballot or vote early with a machine during the early voting period. We want them to know that however they choose to vote – with a vote-by-mail ballot or with a machine during the early voting period or on Election Day – the systems in place are secure and their votes will be properly counted.”
While all voters are encouraged to verify their polling location before going to the polls, it is especially important for voters in 12 Burlington County towns where voting district boundaries were changed or polling locations were moved. Most of the changes occurred before the June Primary Election.
Voters in these municipalities should be aware of the following changes:
