Register to Vote Socialist in New Jersey
After a 2013/14 lawsuit against the State of New Jersey, the Socialist Party of New Jersey was successful in gaining voter registration for socialists in New Jersey.
The result of that lawsuit was the addition of the Socialist Party of New Jersey to the NJ Political Party Affiliation Declaration Form. This allows voters in New Jersey to register as a socialist and declare their independence from the Democratic Party.
You do not need to be a dues-paying member of the Socialist Party USA to declare your voting affiliation with the SPNJ. The purpose of the form is to declare your support for the politics of any of the parties listed, which in our case is democratic socialism and the ideas put forward in our Statement of Principles.
