The League of Women Voters of Northern Valley encourages voters to visit the site early.\u00a0 They can access the voter guide for their community on VOTE411.org and make a voting plan to cast their vote in the General Election on November 8.\u00a0 The voter guide presents responses from candidates running for municipal offices and the U.S. House of Representatives.<\/p>\n

“Voters in the region need to educate themselves about the voting process and exercise their right to vote.\u00a0 From local to state races, it is crucial voters in the LWVNV’s 29 municipalities make their voices heard in the next election,\u201d said Joyce Luhrs, Vice President, League of Women Voters of Northern Valley.\u00a0 \u201cVOTE411.org is a nonpartisan, one-stop shop resource providing the electorate with the resources they need to make an informed vote this fall.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each year, VOTE411 helps voters nationwide, including young adults and first-time voters, find a range of information about voting and elections.\u00a0 This hands-on, accessible site provides a voter’s registration status, poll locations and times, information about state and local races, candidates’ positions, registration deadlines, voter eligibility requirements, and more.

In New Jersey, eligible voters may register to vote online, by mail or in person at the County Clerk’s Office.\u00a0 The voter registration deadline to vote in the November 8 election is Tuesday, October 18.\u00a0 If a voter is already registered to vote, they should check if their status is correct and active.\u00a0 A voter should reregister if they move, change their name, or completed a sentence of incarceration.\u00a0 People on parole or probation may register to vote in New Jersey.
