In this paper, we consider Dirichlet series with Euler products of the form F(s) = Πp in > 1, and which are regular in ≥ 1 except for a pole of order m at s = 1. We establish criteria for such a Dirichlet series to be nonvanishing on the line of convergence. We also show that our results can be applied to yield non-vanishing results for a subclass of the Selberg class and the Sato-Tate conjecture.
