Abstract

The article discusses several reportedly right and wrong ways to reform the New Jersey Constitution's gubernatorial absence provision as of 2014, focusing on political power, state constitutional law in New Jersey, and the apparent removal of a New Jersey governor's legal authority when he or she is absent from the state. A New Jersey appellate court's ruling in the 1943 case In re An Act Concerning Alcoholic Beverages, which deals with the concept of effective absence, is examined.
