Two Iowans who challenged Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson's listing on ballots in Iowa are taking their case to court. A hearing is set for Friday morning. <\/p>\n
Attorneys for the two voters filed documents Thursday in district court in Des Moines asking a judge to review the decision of a panel of three state officials that allowed Johnson on the ballot. <\/p>\n
Secretary of State Matt Schultz, Attorney General Tom Miller and Warren Jenkins, the chief deputy for Auditor David Vaudt, voted Wednesday to allow Johnson on November's ballot. <\/p>\n
Libertarians say they held a convention at the Iowa State Fair to get Johnson onto Iowa's ballot. <\/p>\n
The challengers say Libertarians didn't hold a real convention. They say the panel of officials made an erroneous decision not supported by the evidence. <\/p>\n
