Nader Shuns GOP Help on Ballot Access

LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Presidential candidate Ralph Nader is shunning help from Republicans to get on Michigan's ballot as an independent candidate.

Instead, he is caught in the middle of a dispute over leadership of the state Reform Party, and whether he's the legitimate nominee in Michigan.

Both John Muntz and Matthew Crehan claim to be the chairman of the Reform Party of Michigan.

Muntz gave state elections officials paperwork for Nader to be on the ballot in late June, after Nader won the national Reform Party endorsement.
