It could be the end of “the line” on NJ ballots
from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
There has been a lot of attention on the 2024 New Jersey Senate race. But past the candidates, an important aspect of this race was a lawsuit that was filed by Democratic Congressman and Senate candidate Andy Kim, along with two other candidates. It could end up having a lasting impact on New Jersey politics, as it could change the way primary ballots are designed in the state forever - it already has for the Democratic primary in June. We talk with Dr. Benjamin Dworkin, Director of the Rowan Institute for Public Policy & Citizenship in Glassboro, New Jersey, about what is known as “the county line”, why it has mattered, and what the impact could be if it does indeed go away for good.
