Jersey voters, take note. There's a big change in the state's voting laws that you'll need to pay attention to under a measure signed by Gov. Phil Murphy designed to expand voter participation. Critics say the new law is sparking voter confusion. And county clerks say it's forced them to scramble to comb voting rolls to meet its requirements on short notice. The big change is about mail-in ballots.

You have always had the option of mailing in your ballot. You could get a ballot if you applied for one by the deadline, then mailed it in or dropped it off by Election Day.

The new law says that if you mailed in your ballot in the 2016 elections, you are now considered a mail-in voter and your county clerk now has to automatically mail you a ballot soon. So keep an eye on your mailbox.

If you asked for absentee ballot you are automatically such the next election . You did not request this. Now you need to fill out the provisional ballot at polling location which can take 5 minutes.

“In April, New Jersey became the 13th state to automatically register people to vote if they apply for a driver’s license or a non-driver ID card. The new law was expected to register more than a half million new voters, according to the Center for American Progress, a progressive research group.”

Too complicated to register so they made it automatic... Forced to be a voter.
