CA: Judge wants to throw out lawsuit alleging fraud in Shasta County's primary election
A judge on Wednesday said he wants to dismiss a lawsuit challenging the outcome of the Shasta County Board of Supervisors District 2 primary election.
Shasta County Superior Court Judge Stephen Baker said the lawsuit filed against the winner in the election, Allen Long, and the county registrar of voters, was vague and not timely.
The lawsuit "clearly does not spell out sufficient grounds for an election contest," Baker said.
He also said the lawsuit was left to languish without the person who filed the suit not taking prompt action to move the case forward. He further added that defendants in the lawsuit were not given timely notice of the lawsuit against them.
