NJ extends email voting to Friday for displaced TRENTON, N.J. - New Jersey has extended the deadline for email voting for displaced residents. The Division of Elections has issued a new directive that gives displaced voters until 8 p.m. Friday to return email and fax ballots. They still must request the ballots by 5 p.m. The new deadline gives county election officials time to verify and process the requests. They must fulfill the requests by noon Friday. The state decided days ago to allow voters displaced by the storm to cast ballots by fax or email.
