Dear Camden County Clerk,
Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.
I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.
I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
1) list of all candidates certified to appear on the 2024 general election ballots in the county
2) copies of letters/messages from all candidates who withdrew their names from the ballot
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.
Yours faithfully,
Charlie Kratovil

Good afternoon Mr. Kratovil,
Thank you for contacting the Camden County Clerk's Office. I have checked with both the OPRA Custodian and with the Election Division of the Camden County Clerk's Office. To my knowledge, an OPRA request regarding 2024 General Election Candidates has not been received by either department.
Since it appears the county has not received the initial request, you will need to create a new request. It is suggested that future OPRA requests be submitted through Camden County's OPRA system. This ensures that your request is sent directly to the Custodian of Records' Office and eliminates potential delays.
