New Law Blamed Brown's Ballot Order May Bring On Lawsuits
In Columbus Ohio Secretary of State Ted W Brown ordered November election ballots in the form set by this year's Legislature. The move signals expected lawsuits to block the straight party line setup for candidates on ballots and machines. The law, effective Oct 15, returns to horizontal or vertical lines for party tickets, while paper ballots rotate candidate positions. Brown's office says the rotation on paper ballots may spark suits over discrimination against candidates due to ballot disparities.
