Where To Vote In Person In Parsippany This Fall

PARSIPPANY, NJ—Although the General Election is slated to be conducted primarily by mail and polling places have been reduced due to the coronavirus pandemic, the county announced the polling locations for those who prefer to vote in person.

Parsippany residents may vote in person from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 3, but where they vote is determined by their district.

Residents who live in districts 1-20 and 37 and 39 will vote at Brooklawn Middle School at 250 Beachwood Rd.

Residents of districts 21-36 and district 38 will vote at Central Middle School's gym, located at 1620 Route 46 West. Accommodations are available for those with disabilities.

The county clerk said all voters are strongly encouraged to vote by mail, and those that vote in person will utilize a provisional (paper) ballot. You can see a list of ballot drop boxes, including one location in Parsippany, here.

On Aug. 29, 2020, Gov. Murphy signed legislation to pivot New Jersey from primarily in-person to mail-in voting.

"COVID-19 has caused us to re-evaluate the way we typically hold our elections," said Murphy when he signed the bill. "Even in the face of a pandemic, we are firmly committed to ensuring a safe and inclusive general election."
