A 668 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires registered voters to present photo ID when voting at polling place.

This bill requires all voters in New Jersey to show a photo ID at polling places before receiving a ballot. Acceptable IDs include a New Jersey driver's license, REAL ID card, DMV "identification only" card, or U.S. passport. Voters without valid photo ID or with mismatched ID may be challenged, but they can still establish eligibility through the existing process. The bill amends election law to add this requirement while clarifying that challenges do not deny voters the opportunity to prove their right to vote.
