Unfortunately, this is not an option in NJ. This is the main problem with "mail in voting". EVERY registered voter gets a ballot mailed to them. It doesn't matter if they moved away, died, are in a coma etc., a ballot is mailed out. This is totally different from "absentee ballots", where the voter MUST request a ballot, receive it, and vote it. There will be millions of ballots like my son's NJ ballot that are sent to addresses where there is no registered voter residing.
FWIW: I tossed my son's ballot in the shred pile as soon as I received it. It hurt me a little, knowing that I am in the tiny minority of folks doing such, but unfortunately, I am a rule follower.
