Reply to comment by Turbo_Dog6 in Tried to vote today, I’ve voted in every election for 10 years, haven’t moved, and now suddenly my names not in the system by [deleted]
When we switched from a yearly to a permanent vote-by-mail system, my mail-in ballot never arrived and I had to vote with a provisional ballot.

Dude I’m 0-3 in mail in ballots, I’ve tried it but I absolutely can not endorse it. Only one where I moved was 2020(I moved and updated my info in May however) but I get the logistical issues given the situation. It was also extra frustrating with Murphy cranking one out and patting his back about the amount of vote by mail ballots NJ did. Just felt like a slap in the face to someone who has voted in EVERY election since turning 18.
Nobody here is going to like to hear it but I have 0 faith in the mail in system and to be honest it’s shit. I’d rather support a blockchain based digital system before mail in ballots. This year the only reason I got a ballot is because I had to reach out for them to send it. I still only got it Friday before Election Day.
How did I know I didn’t get it? Well I received mail in ballots for 2 other random people to my address. Just a 0/10 system all together and has left a sour taste in my mouth. At least my work offers up to 4 hours PTO for voting, I still usually just get there first thing in the morning and it’s never an issue. I plan ahead.
Nobody mentioned anything provisional about my ballot though when I signed in to vote.
