Write-In Vote Rejected in Trenton Mayor Plea
Common Pleas Judge Fred Cramer dismissed Charles Paullin's plea to force certification of his write in mayoral bid in Trenton. The judge upheld Ohio's no space for write ins on non partisan ballots when a candidate has filed, calling the law constitutional and not denying voters or seekers of office rights. Paullin claimed 149 votes to Stretcher's 127.
