Syllabus

Mandamus, primary election, general election, East Cleveland Charter Section 115, R.C. 3501.18, and sufficient allegations. Relator, who had finished second in the partisan primary election, did not have the right to be placed on the general election ballot for Mayor of East Cleveland, because the initial paragraph of Section 115 of the East Cleveland Charter provided for partisan primary election so that the winners of the partisan primaries would be placed on the ballot. Relator did not aver sufficient facts to claim that the Board of Elections abused its discretion in providing polling places in her ward. R.C. 3501.18.
