You are not eligible to register to vote if:
you are serving a sentence or on parole or probation, as
a result of a conviction of an indictable offense under state or federal law.
Note: If you are no longer serving a
sentence, or are on parole or probation because of a felony conviction, you CAN
vote in NJ.

If you were registered to vote before you were convicted,
you must register once you have served your time. When you were convicted, your
voter registration was deleted.
You only lose your right to vote while you are serving a
sentence, are on probation or parole.
If you are a pre-trial detainee or on bail pending appeal,
you do not lose your right to vote.
