A recall election shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Title 19

of the Revised Statutes which apply to all elections, except that in the case of an

election to recall a member of the governing body of a municipality operating under

the provisions of the “Uniform Nonpartisan Elections Law,” P.L.1981, c. 379 ( C.40:45-5 et al.), or a member of the school board in a Type II school district, or any other

elected official elected under the provisions of another title, the election shall

at which the question of the recall of an elected official is submitted to the voters,

the county clerk or other appropriate officer shall cause samples of the entire ballot

to be voted upon at that election to be printed and distributed to the voters of the

jurisdiction wherein the recall election is to be held in the same manner as prescribed

for the printing and distribution of sample ballots at the general election as provided

by article 2 of chapter 14 of Title 19 of the Revised Statutes, 1 except that in the case of an election other than the general election, any period

of time calculated under the provisions of that article from the date of the general

election shall be calculated instead from the date on which such other election is

to be held. 1
