Requires candidate for elective public office to file with nominating petition specific affirmation that candidate has not been convicted of disqualifying crimes.

This New Jersey bill requires candidates for any state, county, or municipal elective office - including Governor, State Senate, and General Assembly - to submit a signed statement with their nomination petition. The statement must confirm they have no convictions for serious crimes (such as first- to fourth-degree offenses under New Jersey law) or, if convicted, disclose each crime’s details, date, location, and penalties (excluding expunged records). It applies to all candidates filing for office and aims to standardize disclosure of criminal history during the nomination process. The bill does not alter eligibility for office but mandates this documentation be part of the petition filing.
