This bill mandates that registered voters present valid identification at polling places before being issued a ballot. The amended law specifies that district boards must verify a voter's identity using various forms of acceptable identification, which include a New Jersey driver's license, REAL ID, passport, voter registration card, and several other forms of ID. If a voter cannot provide one of these primary forms of identification, they must present two forms of supplemental identification, such as a utility bill or a rental statement, to establish their identity. The bill emphasizes that identification must be physical and cannot be digital.

Additionally, the bill introduces a provision that allows for the challenge of a voter's qualification if they fail to present the required identification or if the information on their ID does not match their voter registration details. This ensures that the integrity of the voting process is maintained while still allowing voters the opportunity to prove their eligibility if challenged. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
