Friedman v. Cuomo
New York Court of Appeals
Decided March 25, 1976PublishedCited by 10 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtJones, J.
We uphold the constitutionality of chapters 29 and 30 of the Laws of 1976. Those chapters, amending section 21 of the Election Law, effective March 11, 1976, establish a procedure whereby the preference for a presidential candidate of persons running for election as delegates and alternates to the 1976 conventions of the national political parties may be listed on the April, 1976 primary ballots. The case comes to us on direct appeal from a judgment of Supreme Court which also declared these chapters constitutional. (NY Const, art VI, § 3, subd b, par [2]; CPLR 5601, subd [b], par 2.)
