Removes prohibition on police presence at ballot drop boxes and polling places.

This bill removes restrictions that previously prohibited police officers from being within 100 feet of ballot drop boxes and polling places during elections. It repeals a 2021 law (P.L.2021, c.459) that had created this prohibition. The bill also eliminates reporting requirements related to police presence at election locations, such as notifying county election boards and the Secretary of State about police dispatches. This change allows police to be present at these locations in their official capacity during elections, affecting how law enforcement interacts with election processes in New Jersey.
