A 1555 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Allows voter to cure mail-in ballot due to certain envelope deficiencies or missing certificate, and to vote by provisional ballot following receipt of cure letter.

This bill (now law as P.L.2025, c.322) allows voters to correct mail-in ballot errors - such as missing certificates or envelope issues - by submitting fixes within a specified timeframe. It also lets voters who received a "cure letter" about a rejected ballot choose to cast a provisional ballot in person instead of attempting to fix the original ballot. This directly affects voters who applied for mail-in ballots but faced submission errors or received notifications about defects. The process ensures voters aren’t disqualified for minor administrative mistakes while maintaining election integrity.
