How to get your New Jersey voter file
New Jersey isn't pre-loaded, so you provide the voter file and we load it into Motion51 for you. Here's the official source — request it from the state, send us the file, and you're ready to cut turf.
- Where to request it
- New Jersey Department of State, Division of Elections (operator of the Statewide Voter Registration System / SVRS)NJ Division of Elections, P.O. Box 304, Trenton, NJ 08625-0304; main line (609) 292-3760; OPRA via NJ Department of State Records Custodian
- Cost
- No published flat fee; OPRA standard copying/electronic media rates ($0.05/page letter, $0.07/page legal, or actual cost of media for electronic delivery). Statewide extracts when granted are typically delivered on electronic media at cost.
- How to request
- OPRA request to the NJ Department of State for SVRS extract. There is no public web download of the full statewide file; the Division publishes statewide registration STATISTICS only. Statewide bulk extracts are commonly assembled by aggregating the 21 county lists.
- Turnaround
- 7 business days for OPRA acknowledgment; statewide assemblies can take several weeks because data flows from county systems.
Costs and rules change — confirm the current details on the official page before you order. Each state also has use restrictions on voter data — check the official agency link above for the specifics. Once you have the file, we handle loading it, cutting turf, and getting your volunteers knocking.
