The issue presented in this appeal is whether the beer-sale issue submitted to the Clay Township voters on November 6, 1984 was presented in compliance with the election laws of this state. We hold that the issue was properly submitted, and thus we affirm the election validation.
The sole contention of appellants is that the beer-sale issue was required to be submitted on a separate ballot, and that failure to do so invalidates the election. This contention has no merit.
R.C. 4305.141 sets forth the legal requirements for a local option elec*24tion dealing with the sale of beer. There is no requirement in the statute to the effect that the issue must be submitted on a separate ballot. Certain required procedures are detailed in the statute, but ballot segregation is not included therein.
R.C. 4301.352 prescribes the procedure for elections involving wine, *25mixed beverages, and/or spirituous liquor. This statute does require that these issues be submitted on separate ballot, to be segregated from any other issues to be decided.
The ballot submitted in Clay Township on November 6,1984 combined the beer-sale issue with the four questions presented under R.C. 4301.35. However, the only election being contested is the beer-sale election. Since there is no statutory requirement of segregation as to the beer sale issue, the election must stand.
Accordingly, we- affirm the judgment of the court of common pleas.
Judgment affirmed.
