On June 29, the New Jersey legislature passed AB 4613. It provides that the government will automatically register all adult citizen residents known to exist. It also allows no-excuse early absentee voting, and lets 17-year-olds pre-register.

Governor Chris Christie still has not acted on the bill. The rules say he can delay deciding whether to sign or veto the bill until the legislature comes into session. The legislature may come into session this month. If it does not, it will come into session next month.
