## Opinion text

Per Curiam.
In prescribing the form of the presidential ballot, the Secretary of State, in following the statutes, performs solely a ministerial duty and is in no way acting in a judicial or quasi-judicial capacity. *247 Therefore, the remedy of prohibition is not available.
The judgment of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.
Judgment affirmed.
Weygandt, C. J., Zimmerman, Stewart, Middleton, Taft, Matthias and Hart, JJ., concur.
