Notice Regarding Electioneering

The Morris County Board of Elections has extended the distance within electioneering is prohibited from 100 feet to 200 feet

On July 8th, Governor Murphy signed into law S-3850, as P.L. 2025 c.92, which permits county boards of elections to extend the distance within which electioneering is prohibited. Prior law barred electioneering inside any polling place or room; within 100 feet of the outside the entrance to a polling location or room; and within 100 feet of a ballot drop box in use during an election. The new law permits the county board of elections the discretion to extend the distance from 100 feet to 200 feet. The Morris County Board of Election Commissioners has adopted the change and the distance has been increased to 200 feet and is effective immediately.

Warning! Registering to vote is FREE. Any website that charges for voter registration is not an official government site. Beware of releasing personally identifiable voter registration information on non-governmental sites.
