FAILURE TO SPECIFY THE GENDER OF THE CANDIDATE REQUIRED DENIAL OF THE DESIGNATING PETITION (CT APP).

The Court of Appeals, over a two-judge dissenting opinion, determined a designating petition was properly denied because the gender of the candidate was not specified:

Election Law § 6-132 directs, among other things, that the public office or party position sought be identified on the designating petition. Further, where, as here, a political party provides by rule for equal representation of the sexes on its state committee, “the designating petitions . . . shall list candidates for such party positions separately by sexes” (Election Law § 2-102[4]). Thus, the courts below did not err in denying the petition to validate the designating petition due to the failure to specify whether the office sought was that of male or female member of the state committee … . Matter of Mintz v Board of Elections in the City of N.Y., 2018 NY Slip Op 05958, CtApp 8-29-28
