Requires directions on election ballots to vote for one or multiple candidates to appear in color other than black.
This New Jersey bill (A 2945) requires election ballots to display voting instructions like "Vote for one" or "Vote for two" in a color other than black to make them more visible. It directly affects voters and election officials by changing how ballot instructions are printed, ensuring these key phrases stand out clearly. The bill amends existing election laws to mandate this color change for all ballot instructions specifying how many candidates to vote for, without altering voting rules or eligibility.
