How do I find my Elected Officials?

To find your Local or County officials, Governor, or President, a simple online search using your town or county, and state works well.

For State Legislators or Congress, knowing your District number provides the best results.

District numbers look like this:
LD (1-40), indicates your State Legislative District.
CD (1-12), indicates your Congressional District.

If you are a registered voter, your District numbers are listed on your sample ballot and in your information in My Voter Record. My Voter Record is a great tool for reviewing all your voter information and your voting history. You can also track your vote! See when your vote was acknowledged and counted.

If you want to find your Voting District, and are not yet registered to vote, you can use one of the portals linked below.

  • My Voter Record is a secure portal set up by the New Jersey State Government. Sign up to see where you vote, and your State and Congressional Districts. You can also see your voting history. The sing up link is at below the sign-in.

  • Find your State Legislators using the District Map on the NJ Legislature’s website. Just enter your address or zip code, click on the location pin, and District Details show your State Senator and Assembly Representatives.

  • New Jersey (all states) has two Senators at the Federal level, currently Cory Booker and Andy Kim, and 9 representatives in Congressional Districts. You can find who your Congress person is at Congress.gov using your zip code.

  • If you prefer to search for your local or county government by where you live, NJ.gov has a cool page for finding lots of local information including your local government’s website (town and county): Your Government
