After a year-long lawsuit in 2014 (Noble v. State), the Socialist Party of New Jersey secured a voter registration label for socialists in New Jersey!
The result of this lawsuit is the addition of the Socialist Party of New Jersey to the NJ Political Party Affiliation Declaration Form and the ability of voters in New Jersey to register as socialists. Prior to this, left-wing voters had no viable voter registration option besides “Unaffiliated”.
You do not need to be a dues-paying member of the Socialist Party to declare your voting affiliation with the SPNJ. The purpose of the form is to formally declare your support for the politics of any of the parties listed.
