Directs Secretary of State to establish election incident reporting and complaint database; requires certain telephone numbers be provided with voter instructions.
New Jersey's S 939 requires the Secretary of State to create a real-time election incident database tracking civil rights violations, voter fraud, or other election-related complaints. The bill mandates that county election boards post a "voter's bill of rights" notice at all polling places, including specific hotline numbers for the U.S. Attorney's Office, New Jersey Election Hotline, and local election officials. This notice must explain voter rights, provisional ballot procedures, and how to report issues. The database will categorize incidents by location, type, and response, with a public report submitted to the Governor and Legislature within 30 days after each election. The law directly affects voters, election officials, and county boards by standardizing incident reporting and improving access to complaint resources.
