Early in-person voting begins Saturday in New Jersey ahead of Election Day on Nov. 5.

A total of 550,000 mail-in ballots have already been received.

State officials on Thursday laid out their plan for election integrity and voter protection.

"We plan for physical and cybersecurity of our election infrastructure. We support the operations and security of early voting and election day polling locations, voting equipment and the election workers within,” said Lt. Gov. Tahesha Way.

The early voting period in the state ends Nov. 3.
