Proposes amending the New Jersey Constitution to make the Attorney General an elected position rather than appointed by the Governor with Senate consent

Attorney General would serve a four-year term, elected at the general election held during the first year of the Governor's full term, with a two consecutive term limit

Candidates must be at least 30 years old, a U.S. citizen for at least 20 years, a New Jersey resident for seven years, and a licensed attorney in good standing in the state

Attorney General salary would be set at no less than four-fifths of the Governor's salary and cannot be changed during their term of office

Vacancies would be filled through succession as provided by law, with special elections held at the next general election unless the vacancy occurs within 70 days of an election
