A 2311 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes pilot program to provide for same-day voter registration on election day in certain years.

This bill (A2311) creates a pilot program allowing same-day voter registration for eligible voters during New Jersey's 2021, 2022, and 2023 general elections. Eligible voters - those meeting standard requirements (U.S. citizenship, age 18, 30-day residency in state and county) - can register at designated county locations on election day and cast a provisional ballot at their assigned polling place. The program requires counties to designate at least one registration site per county, with optional additional sites in later years. The Secretary of State must submit annual reports evaluating the program's impact on voter participation and fraud risk, with a final report due March 2024 to determine if same-day registration becomes permanent statewide.
