Progressive Activists Say Election Ballots In New Jersey A "Hot Mess"

Progressive activists across New Jersey are mounting a campaign to change the way election ballots are designed  because, they say,  the current system gives preferential treatment to political insiders and the donors who support their campaigns. 

“New Jersey's ballot is such a hot mess,” said Sue Altman, director of New Jersey Working Families. “They vary county by county, and each county has its own process to decide who gets the preferential treatment on the ballot.”
