2EAST BRUNSWICK, N.J. – Middlesex County officials are reissuing vote-by-mail ballots after a mail theft incident potentially disrupted ballot deliveries last month.
The county clerk’s office said the issue stems from a September 24 mail theft affecting certain addresses across Middlesex County.
Voters who may not have received their original ballots have been mailed replacements to ensure every eligible vote is counted in the upcoming general election.
Key Points
Mail theft on September 24 prompted Middlesex County to resend vote-by-mail ballots.
