Libertarian candidate
for governor, Charlie Earl,
bounced from primary
COLUMBUS,
Ohio -- Secretary of State Jon Husted on Friday ruled that signatures on
nominating petitions for Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Charlie Earl and
his running mate Sherry Clark were invalid and struck their names from the May
primary ballot.
Husted
also upheld a challenge to the Libertarian’s candidate for attorney general,
Stephen Linnabarry, removing him from the ballot.
The
decision means the Libertarian Party of Ohio will not have any candidates
appearing on the primary ballot in May, although write in candidates for
auditor and secretary of state successfully qualified as write-in candidates.
