Syllabus

Prohibition—Writ sought to compel board of elections to remove referendum on zoning amendment from May 2026 primary-election ballot—Board of elections did not abuse its discretion or clearly disregard applicable law by denying protest to zoning-referendum petition, because petition included an appropriate map when filed with township board of trustees and board of elections could reasonably conclude that petition's brief summary of zoning amendment's contents accurately described where one of the affected properties is located—Writ denied.
