A 2643 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Prohibits mail-in ballot outer envelope from containing political affiliation or designation visible to public.

This bill prohibits New Jersey mail-in ballot outer envelopes from displaying any visible political affiliation or designation. It affects all voters who participate in mail-in elections across the state. The key provision requires county clerks to ensure both the outer envelope and the envelope used to mail ballot materials to voters don't contain political party information on their exterior. This change applies to all mail-in ballots, including those for primary elections. The policy aims to maintain voter privacy by preventing political information from being visible on ballot envelopes.
