I don't get it. This case regarded a primary election; it wasn't statewide; it wasn't for a national office; and--most important--it was a lower court decision. Can you please explain the relevance?

Here it is Sandy in a nutshell it goes to point...they even bring up the deadline..

Similarly, N.J.S.A. 19:23-12 bars the substitution of Dominick J. Pugliese on the ballot in place of Frederick W. Stevens for the office of Sheriff of Hudson County. It is conceded that candidate Stevens withdrew his candidacy for this office within the past few days. The Committee on Vacancies has put forth Mr. Pugliese as a candidate for this office and seeks to have his name placed on the ballot. This is clearly in violation of N.J.S.A. 19:23-12 since the 34-day time period has lapsed. Accordingly, the application to substitute the name of Dominick J. Pugliese for Frederick W. Stevens for the office of Sheriff of Hudson County on the primary ballot for the forthcoming election is denied.
