Requires availability of free parking at polling places on election day.
S 2851 requires all polling places in New Jersey to provide free on-site parking for voters on election day. The bill amends state election law to add this requirement, building on existing rules that mandate polling places be ADA-compliant and preferably located in schools or public buildings. County election boards must now ensure any selected polling location includes this free parking provision. This change directly affects how county boards choose polling sites and the facilities that host them.
