Ohio Rev. Code § 3513.16: Designation of term for judge of court of common pleas on primary ballot.

When two or more judges of the court of common pleas are to be elected in a county at any one election, the name of each candidate shall be placed upon the primary ballot under the designation of the term for which he is a candidate. Such designation shall correspond to that required by section 3513.08 of the Revised Code. The candidates for each term so designated shall be candidates for that term only, unless two or more new judgeships have been created, in which case from all candidates for a newly-created judgeship those receiving the highest number of votes shall be nominated.
