Ohio Republicans decide fate of Feb. 11 primaries
In Ohio most counties will hold the February 11 Republican primaries only where two tickets exist for delegates or separate tickets for county or congressional nominations. The state central committee allowed county committees to call off primaries if only one ticket for state delegates is filed and no other delegates are chosen. Opposition to Taft tickets appears limited to Toledo Cleveland Knox Seloto and a few others, with disputes over filing legality and local control. Franklin county primaries remained uncertain as rulings awaited further action.
