On June 24, the Libertarian National Committee and the Kentucky Libertarian Party filed this amicus brief, in the pending Sixth Circuit Ohio Libertarian ballot access case. The amicus devotes the first section to clearly explaining that officials of Ohio state government actively and closely coordinated with the Republican Party of Ohio and the John Kasich re-election campaign, to keep the Ohio Libertarian candidate for Governor off the primary ballot. The next section focuses on a constitutional infirmity of the 2013 ballot access law. It requires new parties to meet the vote test at the first opportunity. But old parties have two elections to meet the vote test. The Sixth Circuit already ruled that is unconstitutional, in the Tennessee Green Party case.
