New York state Republicans have touched off an eleventh-hour storm by trying to change the GOP presidential primary ballot in a way that could give Rudy Giuliani, their preferred candidate, better name display at the polls.

Picked by a lottery, the order on the ballot a week from Tuesday was to be: Ron Paul on top, followed by Alan Keyes, Duncan Hunter, Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, John McCain and Fred Thompson. If GOP officials prevail, the names of the three candidates who have dropped out - Keyes, Hunter and Thompson - would be removed so Giuliani gets second place and McCain becomes last of the five.
