MOUNT VERNON — A lawsuit filed by supporters of former Mayor Ernest Davis seeking to overturn the November election has been dismissed by a federal judge.
U.S. District Judge Charles L. Brieant rejected the lawsuit’s allegations that a federal probe of city business intimidated voters in the mayoral election.
The lawsuit was brought on behalf of more than a dozen plaintiffs, including Davis, against the U.S. Justice Department, the FBI, the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the state and county boards of election, Mayor Clinton Young and Janet Snyder, the Republican candidate in the general election. It sought $600 million in damages.
