New Jersey Elections Security Act establishes a paper ballot voting system and a permanent Election Security Commission.

The New Jersey Elections Security Act mandates that counties replace electronic voting machines with a paper ballot voting system. This system requires voters to mark paper ballots, which are then tabulated using state-certified voting equipment. The bill also requires the Secretary of State to promulgate rules and regulations for implementing the paper ballot system. Counties must conduct a risk-limiting audit for each election to ensure accurate results. The act establishes a New Jersey Election Security Commission to oversee election security and report on election security annually.
