Greer, Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2nd Battalion, 113th Infantry Regiment, sort and open ballots at the Essex County Board of Elections in Newark, N.J., July 22, 2020. More than 120 New Jersey Army National Guard Soldiers, under the supervision of election officials in seven counties, performed duties at polling stations and other county government offices related to the state’s July 7, 2020 Primary Election. This is the first time the New Jersey National Guard has supported a domestic election. The New Jersey National Guard election support mission has processed more than 372,700 votes, with more than 100,000 ballots from Essex County. This state active-duty mission is being undertaken at the request of the New Jersey Division of Elections, which anticipated a possible shortage of polling place workers and volunteers due to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak.
