The New Jersey State Supreme Court on Wednesday sided with Democrats and allowed their candidate for Senate to appear on the upcoming November ballot.

The court acted because Sen. Robert G. Torricelli (D) withdrew from the race. Democrats have settled on former senator Frank R. Lautenberg as a replacement.

Republicans plan to challenge the late name change.
