Nebraska Supreme Court Rules: Mark Martinez Stays on Ballot for Douglas County Sheriff

The Nebraska Supreme Court has decided that Democrat Mark Martinez can remain on the ballot for Douglas County sheriff, despite a dispute over his eligibility. Martinez, who is challenging Republican incumbent Aaron Hanson, was initially deemed ineligible due to a lack of active peace officer certificate. However, the court ruled that Martinez meets the states requirements as he holds a law enforcement certificate from 1984 and has decades of experience with the Omaha Police Department and service as a U.S. Marshal until 2018. The decision has been met with cheers from Democrats, who view it as a victory against political manipulation. Both candidates will now skip the primary and head straight to the general election ballot.
