Voter Registration Deadline Approaching

The League of Women Voters of Fair Lawn reminds all citizens that New Jersey's special primary election for office of U.S. Senate will take place on Tuesday, August 13, 2013.  The voter registration deadline for the special primary election is Tuesday, July 23, 2013.

“With three elections occurring in the next few months, I urge everyone who needs to register or to change their voting address to do so today,” said Ilene Kahn, President of Fair Lawn League

County clerks must receive the application by that date. The deadline to apply in-person for a vote by mail ballot is Monday, August 12 by 3 pm at your County Clerk’s office. Vote by mail applications are available at www.lwvnj.org.

 

The deadline to file a change of party affiliation for the special primary has already passed. However, registered unaffiliated voters, those who have not declared a party affiliation on either their registration form or during a previous primary, may declare at any time up to and including primary election day at the polls and vote in that party’s primary.
