Creates offenses related to election officials; permits election workers to shield personal information from public.
This bill creates new offenses to protect election workers and officials in New Jersey. It makes it a disorderly persons offense to intimidate, threaten, or interfere with election workers or officials while they perform duties, and to knowingly share their personal information online when it poses an imminent safety threat. Election workers (including county/municipal clerks and election staff) can request the Division of Elections to remove their personal information - such as home addresses, phone numbers, or photos - from public internet records if they provide evidence of a safety threat. The bill also establishes a presumption of safety risk if law enforcement issues a warning for election workers. These changes directly affect election workers who handle voting operations and seek protection from harassment.
