Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey held that unregistered voters are not "qualified voters" under N.J.S.A. 19:23-7 and that unaffiliated voters may declare party membership by signing a party‑nomination petition, thereby allowing their signatures to count; the Appellate Division judgments were affirmed as modified.
