- Judge ruling  a political earthquake in NJ politics that could forever change New Jersey’s political landscape, a federal judge on Friday issued an injunction against the state’s one-of-a-kind but long-debated primary election ballot design — a century-old system known as the “county line.”Under the county-line system, county Democratic and Republican parties endorse candidates in all races and then bracket them together in a line on primary ballots, with opponents listed to the side — a place sometimes called “Ballot Siberia.”. Critics have long said the arrangement — used in 19 of New Jersey’s 21 counties — gives the endorsed candidates a big advantage by making them appear more prominent on ballots and making it easier for voters simply to vote down the line. Research shows candidates that receive the line are greatly favored to win their party’s nomination in the primary. The ruling blocks the setup and forces a ballot redesign for at least this year’s Democratic primaries.
