Requires petition circulators and candidates to take bona fide candidacy oath; makes violation third degree crime; reinstitutes prompt pre-election reporting for independent expenditure committees; affirms court jurisdiction of campaign finance laws.

This bill requires petition circulators and candidates for public office in New Jersey to swear an oath affirming their candidacy is "bona fide" (in good faith) and not designed to undermine other candidates' campaigns. Violating this oath would be a third-degree crime. It also reinstates pre-election reporting for independent expenditure committees and clarifies that courts have jurisdiction over campaign finance law enforcement. The law directly affects anyone circulating petitions or running for office, with penalties for false oaths and new transparency requirements for campaign spending.
