Election Information

Due to a recent change in USPS postmark policy, letters will no longer be postmarked upon drop-off at a post office or postal box, but rather when processed through the USPS system. This change may result in delayed receipt of your mail.  For anything time-sensitive, it is now safer to go inside the post office and request a hand-stamped postmark rather than simply dropping your mail in a box.  Alternatively, voted Vote By Mail Ballots may be left in any drop box before 8PM on election day. See links on this page for a listing of Bergen County Election Drop Boxes.
