A 841 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires registered voters to present identification when voting at polling place.

New Jersey bill A 841 requires voters to present physical identification at polling places during any election. It specifies 13 acceptable forms of ID (like driver's licenses, passports, voter registration cards, or utility bills) and allows two supplemental documents if primary ID isn't available. Voters without matching ID may face challenges, but the bill states it does not deny voting rights if challenges are resolved. This affects all voters casting ballots in person at New Jersey polling locations.
