Dear Morris County Elections,
I am pursuing this data in compliance to the NJSA 19:31 - 18.1. Please see the below snippet of the statue I have reviewed prior to filing the OPRA request. I am also fully aware of such consequences if this data if used as a basis for commercial or charitable solicitation of the voters listed theron.
2. a. The county clerk in all counties shall cause copies of the registry lists, certified and transmitted under R.S.19:31-18, to be printed, and shall furnish to any voter applying for the same such copies, charging therefor $0.25 per copy of the list of voters of each election district. The clerk shall also furnish five printed copies thereof to each district board, which shall within two days post two such registry lists, one in the polling place and one in another conspicuous place within the election district. The county clerk shall also forthwith deliver to the superintendent of elections of the county, if any there be, and to the chairmen of the county committees of each of the several political parties in the county, five copies of the lists of voters of each election district in the county; and to the municipal clerk of each of the municipalities in the county five copies of the lists of voters of each election district in such municipality; and to the county board 10 copies of the lists of voters of each election district in each of such municipalities. The county clerk shall also, upon the request of the chairman of the State committee of any of the several political parties, but not more than once in each calendar year, forthwith deliver a copy of the lists of voters of each election district in each of the municipalities in his county. In no case shall a list of registered voters furnished pursuant to this section include voter signatures. The county clerk shall satisfy the request by delivery of a computer-generated or electronic copy of the list for the county from the Statewide voter registration system.
b.The commissioner of registration shall furnish a computer-generated or electronic copy of a list of registered voters in any or all election districts in the county to any voter requesting it, for which copy such commissioner shall make a charge which shall be uniform in any calendar year and which shall reflect only the cost of reproducing the list, but which in any case shall not exceed $375.
c.No person shall use voter registration lists or copies thereof prepared pursuant to this section as a basis for commercial or charitable solicitation of the voters listed thereon. Any person making such use of such lists or copies thereof shall be a disorderly person, and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $500.00.
Thanks,

Hey Brian,
Is it not possible for the data to be shared via the cloud through a downloadable link? I feel as if a CD causes unnecessary headache.
If a CD is the only option, please send me the associated costs to provide these records and I shall be happy to share an address for shipment.
Thanks,
Emanuelle Sedita
Emanuelle Sedita,
The County does not support a cloud service to send and receive. If you
can provide me an address I will gladly send you the file free of charge,
Thank you
Brian
