Libertarian Party Sues Ohio Over Inadequacy of New Ballot Access Law, and Also Over Due Process

On August 9, the Ohio Libertarian Party filed a new ballot access lawsuit in U.S. District Court, called Libertarian Party of Ohio v Husted, southern district, 2:11-722. Here is the complaint. The party charges that the new ballot access law, signed into law last month, is still unconstitutional. The complaint also asserts that it violates due process for the Secretary of State to have removed the party from the ballot in the partisan 2011 elections, and to have given the party a shortened window for qualifying in 2012.

The case was assigned to U.S. District Judge Algenon Marbley, a Clinton appointee.

  2. Again – each election is NEW and has ZERO to do with any prior election — except perhaps the actual number of voters in the election area involved.

    Separate is NOT equal.
