Letter to the Editor from Monmouth County Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon

Dear Residents,

As the November 5^th General Election draws near, I am urging residents to vote early either by mail or in person. Voter turnout is expected to be high in this presidential election year, and voting early is a great way to avoid possible inconveniences such as lines at the polls or inclement weather.

To vote early, residents can either vote by mail-in ballot or take advantage of in-person Early Voting, a convenient option with weekend and evening voting hours during a 9-day period prior to Election Day.

In-person Early Voting will be Saturday, October 26, through Sunday, November 3. Monmouth County voters may cast their ballots at any one of 10 Early Voting locations regardless of where they live in the County. Hours and locations can be found on the County Clerk’s elections website, MonmouthCountyVotes.com, and on our free “Monmouth County Votes” mobile app. We are here to assist you, so if you have questions, please call the County Clerk’s Elections Office at 732-431-7790.

With more ways and more days to vote, it’s easier than ever to cast your ballot, so why not vote early?

Best regards,

Christine Giordano Hanlon

Monmouth County Clerk
