On August 4, the New Jersey lawsuit over primary election ballot format came to an end. The lawsuit had been filed in 2024 to overturn the practice of giving some primary candidates are better spot on the primary ballot than certain other candidates. The old discriminatory law had been enjoined in 2024, and the legislature had then passed legislation improving primary ballot format. Lawsuits over ballot format in New Jersey are complicated, because each county sets its own format. Now that it is settled that the old primary ballot format is unconstitutional, it should be possible for New Jersey minor parties to sue over the same problem that affects general election ballots.
