Middletown Judge Petition Fight Threatens November Ballot
Middletown faces a potential write in challenge to fill its municipal judgeship this fall if the Butler County Board of Elections does not rescind its ruling. Attorney J T Lamb attempted to file nominating petitions with the county board here yesterday afternoon but was refused. Lamb posted a $25 filing fee and urged the petitions with over 1 000 signatures be presented at the county board meeting in Hamilton today. He may sue by mandamus to place his name on the ballot. The dispute hinges on a 1913 city charter rule and a 1949 revision that deleted the filing window for judges.
