Cedar Bluff election challenge seeks new municipal vote
Circuit Court Clerk Buddy Blevins notes the May 7 election in Cedar Bluff is under challenge by three mayoral candidates who seek to void the results. They allege a malfunctioning voting machine may have affected 35 to 40 votes won by incumbent Richard Lee, while 14 paper ballots were used during the outage. A ruling from Williams is expected after an amended petition is filed, with a three-judge panel possible if the case advances.
