number of sample ballots that are mailed to householdsstatewide. Such an approach recognizes the strained budgets onwhich many counties and municipalities operate, whilesignificantly reducing the amount spent on each election. Underthis proposal, sample ballots would be sent to all registeredvoters for each general election. For all other elections, onesample ballot will be delivered to each address where at leastone resident is a registered voter. Residences with multLp Levoters with different last names, such as group homes, and postoff ice boxes, will continue to receive individual sampleballots.

Taken together, these recommendations modernize votingoptions for our citizens in a sensible and fiscally-prudentmanner.

Accordingly, I herewith return Senate Bill No. 2756 (FirstReprint) and recommend that it be amended as follows:Page 2, Title, Line 1: After "concerning mail-in" insert "and sample"Page 2, Title, Line 2: After "supplementing"delete "P.L.2009, c.79(C.19:63-1 et seq.)" andinsert "various parts ofTitLe 19 of the RevisedStatutes"Page 2, Section I, Line 30: After "future""general" delete
