North Dakota: Missing information keeps measure off ballot

Democratic secretary of state candidate Corey Mock says Republican incumbent Al Jaeger is partly to blame for the troubles of a proposal to repeal North Dakota’s pharmacy ownership restrictions. Mock and Jaeger spoke Wednesday in Bismarck at a candidate forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters. A voter initiative to repeal North Dakota’s pharmacy ownership law was kept off the November ballot because the petition didn’t include a list of sponsors. Jaeger rejected the measure and the Supreme Court affirmed his decision.
