Requires applications to decline receipt of mail-in ballots for future elections be available at polling places on election day.
This bill requires New Jersey County Clerks to provide copies of applications at every polling place on election day for voters who want to stop receiving mail-in ballots for future elections. It directly affects voters who wish to opt out of mail-in voting for subsequent elections. The key provision mandates that these decline applications must be physically available at all polling locations on election day, rather than requiring voters to submit them online or by mail beforehand. The policy change takes effect January 1 following the bill's enactment.
