This bill mandates that registered voters present valid identification at polling places before they can receive a ballot. The identification must bear the voter's name and can include various forms such as a New Jersey driver's license, a REAL ID, a U.S. passport, or a voter registration card, among others. If a voter is unable to provide one of these primary forms of identification, they must present two forms of approved supplemental identification, such as a utility bill or a rental statement. The bill specifies that digital identification is not acceptable.

Additionally, the bill amends existing law to require district boards to verify a voter's qualifications using the provided identification, along with other evidence such as the voter's signature and an affidavit. If a voter fails to present the required identification or if there is a discrepancy in the information, their eligibility to vote may be challenged. The legislation aims to enhance the integrity of the voting process while ensuring that voters still have the opportunity to establish their right to vote if challenged.
