Permits use of instant run-off voting in balloting for certain local elective public offices.

This bill allows New Jersey municipalities governed by the Uniform Nonpartisan Elections Law to adopt instant run-off voting (IRV) for local elections where one candidate is elected. It enables voters to rank candidates in order of preference, with votes redistributed if no candidate wins a majority of first-choice votes - eliminating the least-supported candidate and transferring their votes until one candidate achieves majority support. The Secretary of State must certify that voting equipment and ballots are updated to accommodate IRV before implementation. The bill directly affects local offices like mayors or council members in participating municipalities, not state-level elections.
