Carter can appear on Maine ballot as Jimmy Carter
Kennebec County Superior Court Justice David Nichols ruled that Democratic presidential candidate Jimmy Carter may appear on Maine ballots as Jimmy. The secretary of state had argued Jimmy was a nickname and should be listed as James E or James Earl Carter. Nichols said Jimmy is the name Carter has used in public life since 1970 and not a nickname.
