Kevin Shows and Perry County Republican Executive Committee v. Joel Garner

Summary

The Court affirmed the order requiring Joel Garner’s name to appear on the Republican primary ballot for Perry County Supervisor, District 2. It held that the county election commission lacked authority to disqualify a party-primary candidate, that the Republican executive committee did not properly disqualify Garner, and that substantial evidence supported the finding that Garner had resided in District 2 for the required two years.
