Judge To Hear Evidence In Elkhorn City Lawsuit
KENTUCKY....
Friday morning, Pike County Circuit Judge Steven Combs set a hearing date for Thursday for both sides to present evidence in the vote fraud lawsuit for Elkhorn City's mayoral election held in November. Losing incumbent Mayor Bill Powell accuses precinct workers of vote fraud and is seeking a new election. Elkhorn City Mayor Mike Taylor took office this month and says he will give the city 100 percent unless he's told otherwise by the court. Attorney Steve Owens accuses precinct workers of not following the rules and says precincts did not have the proper ballots for a time on election morning. He also says people were voting in the city election who were not eligible. Owens says these things could have affected the outcome of the election.
