Joint bracketing was approved by Gov. Phil Murphy in 2018, and allows candidates to "circulate a nominating petition jointly and be bracketed together on a ballot," according to the New Jersey School Boards Association.
Candidates who are bracketed together share position on the ballot as a group, and their names will be printed together as well.
