Who is running?

New Jersey voters will head to the polls today to choose a U.S. senator and 12 members of Congress in an election widely seen as a referendum on President Donald Trump's first two years in office.

There are also county, municipal and school board elections taking place, as well as a few state races for open seats in the Legislature.

In addition, voters will cast ballots on a public referendum question on whether to approve $500 million in state borrowing to pay for facility upgrades at vocational-technical schools and school-security upgrades in K-12 districts. Some of the money would also be used for water infrastructure improvements in school districts and expansions at county colleges.

What do I do if I'm told I can't vote?

If you show up and your name is not in the poll book, ask a poll worker for help. The poll worker can call county or state election officials to see where and if you are registered, and direct you to the correct polling place.

If that doesn't clear up the confusion, ask for a provisional ballot. That ballot will make its way to county election officials, who will conduct fact-finding using voter registration information to see if it can be counted. It's a good idea to follow up right away with county election officials using the contact information posted on the state's website to see if there's anything else you need to do to make sure your vote is counted.

You may also be told you cannot vote on a regular voting machine because you already received a mail-in ballot. A recently enacted state law automatically enrolled thousands of voters to receive mail-in ballots.

If that happens, you will still be able to vote using a provisional ballot. Your name should still appear in the voter rolls, and your vote will count the same as those cast on a voting machine or using a mail-in ballot.

What's the weather like for Election Day?

Rain is expected to begin between 7 and 8 a.m. and continue throughout the day. Heavier rain and possible thunderstorms may move in during late morning and into the afternoon. The rain will begin to taper off around 5 to 6 p.m.

Temperatures will be in the low to mid-60s.
