In this mandamus action, the petitioner, Ora Brady, asked this Court to direct the Secretary of State of West Virginia and the ballot commissioners of the Ninth Senatorial District of West Virginia to strike respondent Tracy W. Hylton’s name from the May 13, 1986, primary election ballot as candidate for the nomination of the Democratic Party for the office of Senator of the West Virginia Legislature.
