New Jersey Vote by Mail Intervention

Lawsuit filed by the Trump campaign, Republican National Committee and New Jersey Republican State Committee against New Jersey challenging the state’s plan to run a primarily vote by mail election in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) intervened in the case to protect the expansion of mail-in voting. The court denied the plaintiffs’ request for a preliminary injunction and granted the DCCC’s motion to dismiss the case, finding that the plaintiffs’ claims of “vote dilution” were speculative and they lacked standing to bring the case.
