New Jersey Get-Out-The-Vote Maps

FairVote2020 has developed an interactive map showing registration and turnout in New Jersey for the 2000 presidential election.

Additional maps include census data on race, ethnicity and income. Change maps by clicking the drop-down menu under "Compare Maps" on the left.

At the end of this page is a link to Adobe maps showing nonvoters and 2000 turnout rates by precinct for New Jersey cities with populations greater than 15,000. There is also a link to a second set of maps for the same places displaying Bush-Gore by precinct. Use the two sets in tandem to help target your canvassing efforts.

Unregistered Over 18 Population in 2000 by Precinct

Google-FairData Base Map (start with a Google map interface)


Map 1 (default map)-- Percent 18 + Unregistered in New Jersey 2000 (by 2000 precinct)

At a scale of about 3 miles, the number of voting age persons (by precinct) who were not registered at the time of the 2000 election is displayed in purple boxes. This number has not been adjusted for non-citizens. Precinct boundaries are those in effect in 2000.

At a scale of about 3 miles, pie charts display in areas with significant minority population, showing race/ethnicity components for the over 18 population.

Note: Precinct-level election and registration data could not be matched to precinct geography in Camden, Monroe, and Berkeley Township
