This bill amends New Jersey election law to require that both official general election sample ballots and official primary election sample ballots include a watermark that clearly identifies them as sample ballots. Specifically, the bill modifies R.S.19:14-22 and R.S.19:23-31 to mandate that these sample ballots be printed on paper of a different color than the official ballots, ensuring they can be easily distinguished. Additionally, the sample ballots must include specific language indicating that they cannot be voted on and provide information about early voting days, hours, and locations.

The new legal language emphasizes the importance of clearly marking sample ballots to prevent any confusion during elections. The bill aims to enhance the integrity of the voting process by ensuring that voters can easily identify sample ballots and understand their purpose. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
