In every election, we make our voices heard and cast our votes on issues that define our lives. We decide whether communities will have the power to hold police accountable, whether all people can have access to abortion and other reproductive health care, whether everyone will have a fair shot in a criminal legal system marred by systemic racial disparities, whether New Jersey is fair and welcoming for all.
New Jersey's 2025 Primary Election will be held in June. Whether you plan to vote by mail, in-person during early voting, or on Primary Election Day, we hope that racial and social justice, civil rights, and civil liberties are at the forefront of your mind as you cast your ballot.

In addition to in-person voting, New Jerseyans have the option to vote by mail. You may vote by mail by completing an application and returning it to your county clerk. The county clerk must receive your mailed application by June 3, 2025 (7 days prior to the election). You may also apply in person at your county clerk’s office until 3 p.m. on June 9, 2025, the day before the election.
Once you have applied for and received a vote-by-mail ballot, you can return your ballot in one of three ways: by mail (postmarked by 8 p.m. on primary election day, June 10, 2025), using a ballot drop box (deposited by 8 p.m. on primary election day, June 10, 2025), or in person at your county Board of Elections office (by 8 p.m. on primary election day, June 10, 2025).
