New Jersey S2947 prohibits monetary or non-monetary compensation for mail-in ballot messengers or bearers.

New Jersey S2947 amends existing law to prohibit the acceptance, offer, or provision of any consideration to mail-in ballot messengers or bearers. This includes cash, goods, services, or intangible property. The bill allows certain facility employees and volunteers to serve as messengers or bearers, provided they do not accept any form of compensation. Messengers must authenticate their identity and signature with the county clerk. The bill also limits the number of voters a messenger or bearer can serve, allowing up to five if they are immediate family members in the same household.
