Requires county clerks to send confirmation notice to vote-by-mail applicant that requests mail-in ballot at separate mailing address than address at which applicant is registered to vote.
This bill requires New Jersey county clerks to send a confirmation notice to voters who apply for mail-in ballots and request delivery to a different address than their registered voting address. The notice, sent to the voter's registered address, will confirm the separate mailing address and provide instructions for correcting errors in the request. It directly affects voters who choose a non-registered address for ballot delivery, ensuring they are notified of the change. The bill amends existing election law to add this mandatory notification requirement, which is not currently required under state law.
