An update to the story we brought you on Thursday, from the Chattanoogan…
An election challenge by Sabrena Smedley in the Republican county mayor primary claims that “rampant cross-over voting by the Democratic Left in numbers never seen before” won the election for Weston Wamp.
Her challenge with the state Republican Party Primary Board in Nashville says, “Considering Weston Wamp received 14,428 votes, but there were 1,698 illegitimate crossover votes by bona fide Democrats, in subtracting same from his total, he would have 12,730 as compared to Sabrena Smedley’s total of 14,112.”
Meanwhile, Matt Hullander, who finished third in the race, said, “I was asked to join Sabrena in the effort to contest the outcome of the election. I did so to support the process to make sure we have fair elections. This is her fight, not mine. I trust the process and the outcome. I’ve moved past May 3 and look forward to the future.”
