City Officials Await Ruling On Council Election Challenge
Hayward officials expect a ruling next month in a dispute over the traditional ballot order for incumbents. City Attorney John Scanlon said briefs were filed Tuesday with Superior Court Judge Lewis Lerçara who promised a mid January decision. The case, filed after the 1972 election by Howard C. McDaniel, questions whether incumbents should top ballots and could affect April ballots. The city has until December 28 to respond and January 4 to rebuttal arguments. A further court appearance seems unlikely unless requested by the judge.
