Ohio Will Not Appeal Injunction that Lets Out-of-Staters Circulate Independent Candidate Petitions
Ohio has decided not to appeal the injunction that was granted in U.S. District Court earlier this week. The injunction said that any adult may circulate an independent candidate petition in Ohio. Therefore, it is now completely safe for minor party and independent presidential candidates to use any circulators, regardless of the residence of the circulators, in Ohio.
This would be true as well for independent candidate petitions for office other than president, except those petitions were due back in March 2008.
Woohoo! A victory for our side!
