Requires directions on election ballots to vote for one or multiple candidates to appear in color other than black.
This New Jersey bill requires election ballots to display voting instructions (such as "Vote for one" or "Vote for two") in a color other than black, rather than the current standard black ink. Currently, these instructions appear in black, which may make them difficult to distinguish from other ballot text. The bill mandates that these specific phrases be printed in an "obvious and conspicuous" color to help voters understand how many candidates they should select for each office. This change would apply to all election ballots, including general elections, primaries, and mail-in ballots. The stated purpose is to make ballot instructions clearer and reduce the risk of voters accidentally casting invalid ballots.
