Transfers Division of Elections from Department of State to Department of Law and Public Safety; designates Attorney General as chief election official and requires two bipartisan co-directors.

This bill transfers New Jersey's Division of Elections from the Department of State to the Department of Law and Public Safety and designates the Attorney General as the chief election official, replacing the Secretary of State in that role. It requires the division to be administered by two co-directors appointed by the governor with Senate approval: one from the governor's political party and one from the party that received the second-highest votes in the most recent gubernatorial election. Both co-directors serve four-year terms tied to the governor's term and may be reappointed. The change takes effect January 1 following enactment, with the Attorney General assuming all election-related responsibilities and budget oversight.
