Filing Petition Requirements Not Met

PERTH AMBOY — A week and a half ago, the New Jersey Superior Court had restrained the Perth Amboy Municipal Clerk and the Middlesex County Clerk from printing and distributing mail-in ballots.

The reason for this was so the court could hold a full hearing to determine the reasons why the Perth Amboy Clerk excluded Cameron from the ballot.

Judge Jose Cameron had brought a suit in Middlesex County Superior Court so he could be included in the ballot for the November 6, 2012 election for Perth Amboy Mayor. (Jose Cameron vs. Elaine M. Jasko et. al. Docket No.: MID-L – 6265-12).

Cameron was able to appeal this decision to the Appellate division of the Superior Court.

Cameron’s motion was denied by Judges Ellen L. Koblitz and Marie P. Simonelli on Friday, October 5, 2012.

New ballots with Cameron’s name on it do not have to be mailed out by the Middlesex County Clerk Elaine Flynn.

This information is based on the Appellate Division’s decision denying Cameron’s appeal.
