115 Ohio St.3d 405 (2007)

2007-Ohio-5346

THE STATE EX REL. DUNCAN v. PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS ET AL.

Supreme Court of Ohio.

Decided October 8, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard A. Duncan, pro se.

Victor V. Vigluicci, Portage County Prosecuting Attorney, and Leigh S. Prugh, Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, for respondents.


Per Curiam.

{¶ 1} This is an expedited election action for a writ of mandamus to compel a board of elections and its members to place a candidate's name on the November 6, 2007 election ballot for a city council seat. Because the board neither abused its discretion nor clearly disregarded applicable law by upholding a protest to the relator's candidacy, we deny the writ.
