Scope and Content: The State Ballot Law Commission renders decisions concerning objections to validity of nomination papers or other actions placing candidates or initiative/referendum questions on the ballot (MGLA c 55B, s 4).  Until passage of St 1980, c 134, s 8, jurisdiction extended to public policy questions on such ballots.  This series concerns the challenge of Charles H. McGlue et al. to placing on the 1964 ballot a referendum question to repeal or suspend a legislative pay raise because of fraudulent signatures.
