Require photo ID, purge voter rolls, allow early voting

Jack Ciattarelli's Plan to Restore Faith in Our Election System
1. Requiring photo identification from all voters at the polls before they cast their vote.
2. Modernizing our elections by joining 14 others states in requiring paper ballots through the use of optical scan voting machines.
3. Regularly removing inactive voters from the voter rolls.
4. Allowing for early in-person voting on machines prior to Election Day.

Call for Constitutional Convention and referendums

No in-person early voting

Excerpts from veto message:New Jersey voters have been able to vote early in person in every election since 2009, via "Vote by Mail." I support responsible and cost-efficient election reform that increases voter participation because democracy works best when the most people vote. But this bill risks the integrity and orderly administration of our elections by introducing a new voting method and process, and would cost $25 million.

Legislative outcome:Ciattarelli voted NAY; Bill S.536 passed Senate 21-15-3; House equivalent S.2364 passed House 46-31-3; vetoed by Gov. Christie; veto sustained.

Don't bring California's "insane regulations" to New Jersey
