Prohibits county clerks, sheriffs, and surrogates from serving as chairperson, co-chairperson, or vice-chairperson of county political party committee.

This bill prohibits county clerks, sheriffs, and surrogates from serving as chairperson, co-chairperson, or vice-chairperson of county political party committees in New Jersey. It amends state statutes to bar these elected officials - whose roles involve election administration (clerks), courthouse security (sheriffs), or judicial duties (surrogates) - from holding top leadership positions within party committees. The bill allows them to remain regular committee members but restricts their ability to wield significant influence over candidate nominations and election processes through leadership roles. It aims to prevent conflicts of interest by separating election-related duties from partisan political leadership, similar to existing restrictions on county prosecutors. The legislation does not affect their ability to participate in party activities at a non-leadership level.
