Bill Summary
This bill requires a voter to present photo identification before voting at a polling place at any election. Acceptable photo identification includes, but is not limited to a valid: (a) New Jersey driver's license; (b) New Jersey REAL ID identification card or license; (c) New Jersey Division of Motor Vehicles "identification only" card; or (d) United States passport. A voter who does not present photo identification, or whose identification contains a picture that does not appear to depict the voter would be subject to challenge. This bill does not deny or alter a voter's opportunity to establish his or her right to vote if challenged.
AI Summary
This bill requires registered voters to present a valid photo identification, such as a New Jersey driver's license, REAL ID identification card, or U.S. passport, when voting at a polling place. If a voter does not present the required photo ID or the photo and signature on the ID do not appear to match the voter, the voter's right to vote may be challenged. However, the bill does not deny or alter a voter's opportunity to establish their right to vote if challenged.
