Summary

The Voter Convenience Act permits any registered voter in New Jersey to cast a ballot at any polling location within their municipality on Election Day, instead of a single assigned site. County election officials must create uniform procedures, using electronic poll books, to check in voters and provide the correct ballot. The measure also updates rules for district boards and sample ballots and takes effect right away.
