New Jersey's ballot is expected to undergo changes next year, but the specifics remain uncertain. Julia Sass Rubin, a professor at Rutgers University, commented on the current state of political campaigning in New Jersey. "The sad thing is that in New Jersey, for the most part, our politicians — especially at the legislative and county level — they don’t know what campaigning means," she stated. Her research played a role in overturning the county line.
Rubin also noted that there is no disadvantage for voters with the proposed changes to the ballot. "For the legislature, I guess the downside is they have to actually get to know the voters and campaign if you consider that a downside," she added.
