How do I find my Elected Officials?

You can find your Local or County officials, Governor, or President, with a simple online search that includes your town or county, and state.

To find your State Legislators or Congress members you can try a simple search, but your voting District numbers provide the best results.

Voting District numbers are listed like this:
LD (number), indicates your State Legislative District.
CD (number), indicates your Congressional District.

If you are a registered voter your Voting District numbers are listed on your sample ballot and in your information in My Voter Record, on the NJ.gov voter portal. My Voter Record is a great tool for reviewing all of your voter information and your voting history. You can also track when your vote was 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.

  • This 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.

  • Find your State Legislators using the District Map. 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 we have 9 Congressional Districts. You can find who your Congress person is at The House, using the zip code search in the upper right corner of the page.

  • If you prefer to search for your local or county government by where you live, this is the place!
