The court holds that N.J.S.A. 19:13-8, which bars candidates for public office from being nominated by a political party, by way of direct petition, when they have already accepted the primary or general election nomination of another political party for the same office, does not violate the New Jersey Constitution. The court, therefore, affirms the decisions by the New Jersey Secretary of State to reject the Moderate Party's request to list Tom Malinowski as its nominee on the November 2022 general election ballot for the United States House of Representatives, 7th Congressional District because Malinowski had already sought and accepted the Democratic Party's primary nomination for that office.
