A 609 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Provides primary and school election sample ballots may be sent to registered voter by electronic mail if so requested.

This bill allows New Jersey registered voters to request receiving primary and school election sample ballots via email instead of physical mail. Eligible voters must submit a request, provide their physical address, and agree to waive liability for email delivery failures due to technical issues (like spam filters or typos). Local election offices must keep email addresses confidential, not public records, and send paper copies if email delivery fails. The Secretary of State must create standard procedures for implementation, including voter notification and options to switch between email and paper delivery.
