John--

The March 30, 2020 petition deadline is fast approaching and I wanted to share some important updates and developments with you.

1.   Regarding petitions for Federal, State , County and Municipal Office

Today, Governor Murphy signed Executive Order 105

• This order allows for all petitions for federal, state, county, municipal office to be submitted electronically through a form soon to available on the Secretary of State’s website
• It waives Notarization requirements for the petitions
• It does not appear to alter the number of signatures required for Federal, State County and Municipal office. 

2. Regarding Petitions for County Committee

• The Governor’s order also allows for county committee petitions to be submitted online without notarization.
• Lastly, and very importantly, there is the potential for County Committee elections be pushed off by a year, until June 2021,  but I am waiting for further clarity on this. 

I appreciate your understanding of these last minute changes

Thank you!
