| Description | Members of the Oklahoma Americans Elect Party filed a lawsuit Friday seeking to get their presidential and vice presidential nominees on the November ballot.
“They complied with the law,” said James Linger, the Tulsa attorney who filed the lawsuit on behalf of the chairman of the Oklahoma Americans Elect Party and the party's seven presidential electors.
The lawsuit filed with the Oklahoma Supreme Court also wants to stop state election officials from printing ballots until the high court rules.
A hearing before a Supreme Court referee is set for Wednesday. Election officials had hoped to start printing ballots Tuesday in order to get them mailed to military members and others living in other countries by Sept. 21, or 45 days before the Nov. 6 election, to comply with federal law. |
