Atlantic County election officials remind residents that the deadline to register to vote in the November 5 general election is Tuesday, October 15.
The Superintendent of Elections offices in Atlantic City at 1333 Atlantic Avenue and in Mays Landing at 5920 Main Street will remain open until 9 pm on October 15, as required by law.
Any new registrant must submit their paper or online voter registration form by this deadline. Anyone who has moved to or within Atlantic County, had a name change (divorce/marriage) or who would like to update their signature or any other pertinent information, are encouraged to do so by October 15 so their voter profile is as current as possible for the coming election.
With the assistance of a smart phone, tablet or computer, online voter registration is fast and easy at www.Vote.Nj.gov. Click the box titled “Register to Vote” and follow the prompts to the form. Have your New Jersey driver’s license or last 4 digits of your Social Security number available and your information will be electronically expedited to the Commissioner of Registration. Paper forms can be returned in person or by US mail by the October 15 deadline.
