McAlpin break down everything NJ voters need to know ahead of June 10, including the differences between partisan and nonpartisan elections, voting eligibility and the various methods to cast a ballot. They also discuss NJ's historically low voter turnout for primaries and why NJ's closed primary may be a contributing factor.  ----------  We want to hear from you!
