Requires State to use at least half of future federal "Help America Vote Act" funds for voting systems with paper record.
This bill requires New Jersey to allocate at least half of future federal funds received under the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) for 15 years toward replacing voting machines with systems that create a paper record of each vote. It directly affects the State Treasurer, who must manage these funds per the new requirement. The key provision mandates that 50% of HAVA funds - used for election modernization - must go specifically to paper-based voting systems, ensuring a physical backup for every ballot cast.
