Voter registration obligations
Dear Elizabeth Board of Education,
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. Policies, SOPs, curriculum, or other documents demonstrating how the Elizabeth Board of Education fulfills the mandates of the annual voter registration drive and civics instruction required by N.J.S.A. 18A:36-27. These should include district-wide as well as school-based policies, documents, etc.
2. Documents showing how many students were successfully registered at the voter registration drives mandated by N.J.S.A. 18A:36-27 for the last four school years ending in 2024-2025.
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,
Rutgers alumx
