VA-HD64: Judge tosses GOP lawsuit seeking to remove Democrat Stacey Carroll from ballot
A Stafford County Circuit Court judge dismissed a lawsuit by three local voters seeking to remove Democratic House of Delegates nominee Stacey Carroll from the ballot, rejecting claims that she doesn’t actually live in the district where she’s running.
The ruling, made public on Friday, ends weeks of uncertainty in the closely watched 64th District race between Carroll, a military veteran and accountant, and Del. Paul Milde, the Republican incumbent.
The petitioners — Stafford County GOP Chair Steve Schwartz, Judith Anne Parker and Juliet McGee Schweiter — had argued that Carroll’s voter registration was invalid because she allegedly resides at her longtime home in neighboring House District 23, not at the address she used to qualify for the 64th.
Carroll, who previously called the allegations “false and insulting,” celebrated the court’s decision as a victory for voters.
