DescriptionJim Traficant tentatively has seven more petition signatures than needed and will be on the ballot Nov. 2 as an independent candidate for Congress in the 17th District.

Mark Munroe, a Mahoning County Board of Elections member, said Friday night that Traficant’s ballot placement is likely to be approved formally by boards of elections in Mahoning and Trumbull counties next week.

Munroe said he asked elections-board staff to meet with Traficant campaign members at 1 p.m. Friday to handle the “leg work” of looking at the evidence presented by the campaign committee before a formal meeting 6 p.m. Monday.

Friday’s meeting would expedite the Monday meeting ordered by Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, he said. Friday’s meeting lasted three hours.
