The New Jersey Elections Security Act mandates the transition to a paper ballot voting system in all counties replacing electronic voting machines. The system requires voters to mark a paper ballot, which is then tabulated using state-certified equipment. The bill establishes the New Jersey Election Security Commission, composed of state officials and local election representatives, to oversee election security. The commission is tasked with releasing a report on election security four months after each general election, including results from risk-limiting audits.
