Description
MILBURN, Circuit Judge. Robert Taft*fn1 appeals the district court's grant of summary judgment for plaintiffs in this action seeking to enjoin enforcement of an Ohio election statute, Ohio Revised Code § 3505.03, which prohibits nonparty candidates for elective office from having the designation Independent or Independent candidate placed on the ballot next to their name. On appeal, the sole issue is whether Ohio's refusal, pursuant to Ohio Rev. Code § 3505.03, to place the designation Independent below the name of a candidate whose name appears on the general election ballot as a result of a nominating petition violates the First and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
