OPINION

BARAJAS, Chief Justice.

This is an original proceeding in mandamus. Relator, David Escobar, seeks a writ of mandamus from this Court directing the El Paso Democratic Party Chair, the Executive Committee of the El Paso Democratic Party, and the Director of the El Paso County Elections Department to replace his name on the ballot for the 1996 Democratic Party Primary. We conditionally grant the relief requested.

This is yet another matter...
