Polling places around New Jersey have opened for Primary Election Day, and residents can cast their vote in-person at a polling place by putting their ballot in one of the many drop boxes, or by mailing it in as long as it is postmarked by 8 p.m.
Voters will get the chance to determine the Democrats and Republicans on the ticket for several key races in the November elections, including governor.
Gov. Phil Murphy is running unopposed in his bid for reelection on the Democratic side.
The field of Republicans is a little more crowded. Vying for the nomination are former state Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli, former Franklin Mayor Brian Levine, pastor Phil Rizzo, and engineer Hirsh Singh.
All 120 seats in the state Legislature are also up for grabs.
There is also plenty of local primary elections happening today, with some towns and counties determining candidates for mayor, council, sheriff and commissioners.
