Judge rejects Hancock vote challenge

The Sun Herald, 10/12/7

A Circuit Court judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by a candidate who challenged his loss in a race for county supervisor during the September election.

There will not be another election in the Hancock County Board of Supervisors District 4 contest, Judge Michael Taylor decided Wednesday. Challenger Kevin Ladner had filed suit Sept. 13, challenging his narrow loss to incumbent Steve Seymour in the Aug. 7 Democratic primary.
