District of Columbia Board of Elections Memorandum Opinion and Order
The Board held a hearing regarding an appeal from a candidate seeking to use an assumed name on the ballot. The candidate requested that their name be printed as 'Dana White' rather than their legal name, 'Francisco White.' The Board reviewed evidence, including the candidate's professional history and community recognition under the preferred name. Concluding that the use of the name would not confuse voters or violate election administration interests, the Board reversed the Executive Director's preliminary determination and granted the candidate's request to use 'Dana White' on the ballot.
