The NJ Supreme Court’s Supreme Opportunity: Relegalize Fusion Voting

The Supreme Court may rule that New Jersey’s ban on fusion violates the constitutional rights of free speech and free association enjoyed by all citizens, including those who do not identify with the two major parties. In which case, we will all have a more representative and compromise-oriented party system, and for people like me, we will also get a new centrist party that will slowly but surely test its ideas in the political marketplace.
