A list of the alternative polling places will be issued as it becomes available.

“Voting in Monmouth County will proceed despite the best efforts of Hurricane Sandy,” Monmouth County Clerk M. Claire French said in the release. “There are 425,635 registered voters in Monmouth County, and we are making sure everybody has the opportunity to cast their vote in the wake of the storm.”

French stressed that any resident who is a registered voter can cast a ballot in person through Monday at the Board of Elections Office, 300 Halls Mill Road, Freehold. The office is open Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Monday from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.

To streamline the in-person registration process, voters can go online and download and complete the Vote By Mail Application, which is also necessary for voting in person.
