Supreme Court dodges board election question in Ohio
The Supreme Court and its 4 to 2 ruling avoid deciding whether municipal Boards of Education should be elected this year. The Steubenville seed case failed to present a clear mandamus issue. The decision allows Johnson's Cleveland administration to proceed with street paving while maintaining injunction limits. The ruling cites public health as a factor and notes the brick and paving interests shaping the case amid political tension.
