Syllabus

Elections—Mandamus—Compliance with election statutes—Evidence unequivocally showed that relator sought placement of question on ballot asking electors whether sale of spirituous liquor should be permitted at certain times on Sundays at a particular location—Because relator's petition was controlled by R.C. 4301.333, relator not entitled to relief in mandamus based on failure of board of elections to follow procedure under R.C. 4301.33—Because relator did not provide board with affidavit required by R.C. 4301.333(C)(1)(a) when petition filed, petition was invalid in its entirety under R.C. 4301.333(C)(2)—Writ denied.
