Allows candidates to file form attesting to their understanding of and adherence to ELEC rules and regulations with their nominating petitions.
This bill allows candidates for state office in New Jersey to file a sworn statement confirming their understanding of and commitment to follow Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC) campaign finance rules at the same time they submit their nominating petitions. The statement, currently required to be filed separately with ELEC, would now be attached to nomination paperwork instead of submitted later. This change streamlines the process by integrating campaign finance compliance verification into the initial nomination filing. The bill affects all candidates running for state offices who use nominating petitions, including those for Governor, Senate, General Assembly, and other local offices.
