New Milford Mail-In Ballot Drop Boxes: Where Voters Can Go

NEW MILFORD, NJ — New Milford voters planning to return their mail-in ballots before the general election have several secure ballot drop-box locations available in Bergen County.

One nearby option is the Dumont Library at 180 Washington Avenue in Dumont. According to the New Jersey Division of Elections, the drop box is located on the right side of the building.

Another location to drop off ballots is the Bergenfield Borough Hall at 198 North Washington Avenue in Bergenfield. The state says the drop box is located behind Borough Hall.

Bergen County also lists a drop box at the County Administration Building at One Bergen County Plaza in Hackensack.

The county says its ballot drop boxes are under video surveillance and are available 24 hours per day through the general election.

The deadline to place a completed mail-in ballot in an authorized drop box is 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3.

Ballots deposited after the deadline will be considered late and will not be counted, according to the county.

Voters who prefer another return method can deliver their completed and sealed ballots to their county Board of Elections office by 8 p.m. on Election Day.

Mail-in ballots can also be returned through the mail. The state Division of Elections says mailed ballots must be postmarked by Election Day and received by the county Board of Elections no later than Monday, Nov. 9.

Mail-in ballots cannot be returned to regular Election Day polling places or early voting locations.

Voters can also check whether their mail-in ballot has been received through New Jersey's Track My Ballot portal.
