ATTORNEY GENERAL’S LETTER
Dear Fellow New Jersey Citizens:
Voting is an important right and responsibility. Voting gives us a voice in choosing our elected leaders at the local, county, state and federal levels, and, therefore, a voice in determining the laws that govern our towns and counties, our state, and our nation.
As Attorney General, nothing is more important to me than ensuring we have fair, open, and well-run elections. I am committed to working with election officials to make the election process in New Jersey as inclusive and accessible as possible, and this year’s Chronological Elections Guide is part of that process.
The Guide includes important deadlines for all elections held in New Jersey each year, including the annual school board elections held in April, the non-partisan municipal elections held in May, the party primary elections in June, and the general election held in November.
Information is also available on-line in English and Spanish at www.NJElections.org.
I hope you find the information included in the 2008 Chronological Elections Guide helpful in learning about our elections process, and I hope it reminds you to exercise your right to vote.

DIRECTOR’S LETTER
Dear Voters and Friends:
The Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002 has brought much change in voting and elections administration to New Jersey. With so many recent major elections, the State of New Jersey in collaboration with the membership of the New Jersey Association of Elections Officials; the Constitutional Officers Association of New Jersey - County Clerk/Register Section; and the Municipal Clerks’ Association of New Jersey have implemented many measures to improve the electoral process for voters.
In addition, our elections officials are working hard to educate voters regarding the electoral process and they are committed to making voting in New Jersey accessible to all citizens. To this end, New Jersey offers the 2008 Chronological Elections Guide to provide a clear and comprehensive source of information concerning elections for each level of public elected office.
The enhanced guide is a product of a cooperative effort between the New Jersey Division of Elections, the Department of Law and Public Safety - Election Law Section and a diverse group of election officials and voting advocates throughout the state, who are striving to ensure that voting concerns are addressed and the public is well informed.
The right to vote is an important civil right, as well as, a civic responsibility. For further information about voting and elections, please visit our website at www.njelections.org.
