Displaced NJ Voters Allowed to Vote by Email | NBC New York
New Jersey election officials say they will allow registered voters to vote electronically and will also accept ballots paper through Monday, November 19th, as long as they are postmarked by election day, November 5.
The directive is intended to help first responders whose recovery efforts may keep them away from home and their local polling place on election day, as well as those displaced by the storm.
"To help alleviate pressure on polling places, we encourage voters to either use electronic voting or the extended hours at county offices to cast their vote,” said Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno.
Gov. Christie said Friday that his administration is making sure residents have opportunities to vote, even if their polling station is without power or no longer exists. The state is also allowing residents to drop by their county clerk's office to vote, and created a special text number for voters to see if their polling place is still open.
The electronic voting process is used by overseas residents and service members, but this is the first time New Jersey has allowed voters in the state to vote this way.

If Obama wins, it was the right thing to do; if he does not win the state, it was a giant right wing conspiracy by the GOP to make people think they were voting when they really were not. What would be funny would be if they are the deciding state and it is so close we have to wait until Nov. 20 to know who won.
