Introduced Text

New Jersey A317 requires voters who use mail-in ballots to enclose a copy of their photo identification.

New Jersey A317, known as the "Protecting Mail-in Voters Act," mandates that voters who choose to vote by mail must include a copy of a valid form of State-accepted photo identification that matches their name and current address within the mail-in ballot's outer envelope. This identification must be a current and valid document. Failure to include such identification will result in the rejection of the ballot, subjecting it to curing procedures.
