Pursuant to 2506.01, the Court of Common Pleas of Stark County, Ohio, has jurisdiction over appeals from decisions of the Board of Elections. Appellant brought his appeal directly to us rather than the Common Pleas Court.
We find we have no jurisdiction to review the within. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
