All Around Pennsauken

By Frank Sinatra, AAP Editor

Tuesday, Nov. 3 is the General Election, where the presidential, congressional, and municipal races will be decided. The mail-in ballots received by all registered voters in New Jersey need to be postmarked by tomorrow and received by the Camden County Board of Election on or before Nov. 10 in order for those votes to be counted. But there are other ways to make sure your voice is heard.

Use a secure ballot drop box – Pennsauken has a vote-by-mail drop box installed right next to the Township’s Municipal Building, 5605 N. Crescent Blvd. It is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, watched by a video camera, right through the close of polls on election day.

Deliver to the Board of Elections Office – voters can deliver their ballot in person to Camden County’s Elections and Archive Center, 100 University Court, Blackwood, N.J., by 8:00 p.m. on Nov. 3.

Bring your ballot to your polling place – ballots can be submitted in person at a voter’s specific polling place by 8:00 p.m. on Nov. 3. A list of polling locations in Pennsauken can be found below.

Voting In Person

Registered voters can still vote in person on Nov. 3, by using provisional (paper) ballots. There will be a voting machine for use only by disabled voters who are unable to vote using a paper ballot.
