MAJOR: A federal appeals court just denied an attempt by county clerks to stop a lower court ruling eliminating the county line in the June Democratic primary.

The legal fight isn't over, but we're one step closer to democracy in NJ.

New Jersey should not follow the lead of states like Florida and Arizona by introducing a school voucher scheme.

We signed this open letter with dozens of state and national public education advocates to urge lawmakers to reject a school voucher bill.

WE DID IT! A PEOPLE'S VICTORY. May this be a rebirth for democracy in NJ. It is a GOOD Friday!
Let's be clear. Should a 3rd Circuit appeal be filed, the Defendant Clerks, nonpartisan election administrators - will be using taxpayer $$$ to prevent a fair election.
