New Jersey Constitution Party Gubernatorial Nominee on Ballot

The New Jersey Constitution Party has successfully placed Matt Riccardi on the New Jersey ballot for Governor, for the November 2017 election. This is the first time in the party’s history that it has had a nominee on the ballot for that office. Here is the party’s web page.

However, because the candidate didn’t submit a letter from the state officers of the party, permitting him to use the party’s name as his ballot label, he will be on the ballot as “Putting NJ First.” UPDATE: the New Jersey Elections Department now says he will have “Constitution Party” on the ballot next to his name. This update is being posted on June 11.

New Jersey Constitution Party Gubernatorial Nominee on Ballot — 5 Comments

  1. This just illustrates how fractured and disorganized the constitution party has begun, all he had to do was submit a letter from their own officers and they couldn’t even do that.

  2. This is great news! Matt Riccardi is an excellent candidate. He is a Military Vet, a family man, & a true Constitutionist; someone that cares about the rule of law, and not being a “two faced” politician, which is all we get nowadays.

    The problem with the party designation, is actually a blessing in disguise, because Matt’s slogan; “Put New Jersey First for once” is something that ALL voters can resonate with, Democrats, Republicans, and independents alike!

  3. Actually this article is wrong. There was an error that was corrected immediately. Do your due diligence before running with a non story!
