Olympic gold medalist Carl Lewis can’t appear on the general election ballot for New Jersey’s state senate because he hasn’t met residency requirements, the state’s top elections official said.
Absent a decision from a court to the contrary, Lewis wasn’t a resident of the state for the constitutionally required four years prior to the general election in November, Secretary of State Kimberly Guadagno said yesterday in a letter to three county clerks in the state’s eighth legislative district.
