Allows candidates for Senate and General Assembly to appear together in same nominating petition.
This bill allows candidates for New Jersey's Senate and General Assembly who represent the same legislative district and belong to the same political party to be listed together on a single nominating petition. Currently, candidates for these two offices must submit separate petitions, requiring distinct signature collections. The bill does not change the required number of signatures but simplifies the process by enabling combined petitions for candidates running in the same district and party. It directly affects Senate and Assembly candidates seeking nomination in overlapping districts from the same political party.
