1. Each county commissioner of registration and county board of elections may adopt, as further provided by this act, P.L.2019, c.80 (C.19:31-35 et seq.), electronic poll books for use at each polling place on the day of any election, in place of the paper polling record or signature copy register, to access the registration record, eligibility, signature, and other information of each registered voter in the election district.

An electronic poll book shall not be used unless it has been certified by the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State shall adopt and publish electronic poll books standards and regulations governing the certification and use of electronic poll books. The Secretary of State shall not certify an electronic poll book unless it is in compliance with at least the capabilities and standards specified under section 2 of P.L.2019, c.80 (C.19:31-36) and the Secretary of State's standards and regulations. The Secretary of State shall provide each county commissioner of registration and board of elections that adopts the use of electronic poll books under this act with rules, regulations, and instructions regarding the examination, testing, and use of electronic poll books, including rules regarding the security and protection of the information stored in such electronic poll books.
