2 Polling Places Open In Livingston For 2020 Primary Election

LIVINGSTON, NJ — Although the 2020 Primary Election in Livingston will be held via mail due to the coronavirus, there will be two local polling places open on July 7, officials say.

Under Gov. Phil Murphy’s Executive Order 144, every registered Republican and Democratic voter was automatically mailed a vote-by-mail (VBM) ballot for the July 7 Primary Election. Unaffiliated/undeclared voters were mailed an application to request a VBM ballot.

VBM ballots can be mailed at the Post Office, placed in a standard mailbox, or placed in an Essex County Mail-In Ballot Drop-Off Box (see list of locations here).

Livingston will have two polling places open on July 7. They will only provide ADA-compliant visually impaired audio voting and provisional paper ballots.

The polling places will be located at:

• Livingston Senior/Community Center, 204 Hillside Avenue, Lower Level, Room Tahaney 2
• Livingston Town Hall, 357 S. Livingston Avenue

“All are urged to use their VBM ballot,” Livingston officials stated. “Provisional ballots are counted last and must be checked against the VBM ballots that have already been cast before they are accepted and canvassed.”
