S 944 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires Secretary of State and county commissioners of registration to perform audit of voter registration records in Statewide Voter Registration System.

This bill requires New Jersey's Secretary of State and county voter registration officials to conduct a comprehensive audit of the Statewide Voter Registration System within 90 days of the law taking effect. The audit must specifically check for: (1) eligible voters who successfully registered despite being ineligible, (2) attempts by ineligible individuals to register (even if unsuccessful), and (3) whether current procedures effectively remove ineligible registrants as required by law. Officials must jointly develop uniform audit methods and submit a detailed report to the Governor and Legislature within 30 days of completing the audit, including findings and recommendations. The bill focuses solely on establishing this audit process and reporting requirement, with no additional policy changes.
