Ohio Court Hearing Set

A U.S. District Court will hold oral arguments in Morrison v Colley on August 30. This is the case filed by an independent candidate for U.S. House, Charlie Morrison. He turned in enough signatures to be on the ballot, but was still barred, because he had voted in the Republican primary and had run for party office. Ohio law does not clear say if these actions prevent individuals from being independent candidates. The lawsuit argues that the Ohio law, as interpreted by the Secretary of State, is hopelessly vague.
