A 4734 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires Secretary of State to adjust census redistricting data to remove noncitizens for redistricting purposes in this State.

This bill requires New Jersey's Secretary of State to adjust census data used for redistricting by excluding noncitizens. The adjusted population - without noncitizens - would become the basis for drawing state legislative districts, county districts, and municipal wards. The Secretary must make this adjustment using data from the Census Bureau and state law. As a result, voting districts would be created using a population count that excludes noncitizens, affecting how representation is structured in New Jersey.
