New Jersey Legislature Passes Bill Moving This Year’s State Election from November 5 to October 16, to Save Money

On June 27, the New Jersey Senate passed AB 4237, which moves this year’s election for state and local office from October 16 to November 5. Governor Chris Christie already set the special U.S. Senate election for October 16. Therefore, if he signs this bill, the state will save $12,000,000, and voters will only need to vote in one election this year instead of two. It will be interesting to see if the Governor signs the bill.

  1. It seems there are forcing the governor’s hand. The governor could have set the November date, but it’s all politics. I just don’t think he will sign this.

  2. AB 1762 New Jersey rank choice voting……what is going on with this and when will it be passed?
