In a detailed 26-page opinion drawing on Founding documents and practice, and recent writings of legal scholars (including in blog posts), a NJ administrative law judge has rejected a challenge to Ted Cruz’s eligibility to appear on the ballot as a presidential candidate in New Jersey.

The Lt. Gov. makes the final call, and that call could be challenged in a further judicial proceeding.

But for now, Cruz’s position on the NJ ballot remains safe.  (I’ve argued that this is the right result, but not on originalism grounds).

UPDATE: Derek Muller in unimpressed.
