Jimmie Moore Makes Court Challenge About His 32nd Ward by Van Stone frontpagenews1@yahoo.com (267) 293-9201
Jimmie Moore, former Philadelphia Municipal
Court Justice.
Former Municipal Judge Jimmie Moore has file a law suit against the Democratic City Committee of Philadelphia.
Overturning what he calls his primary election win as leader of North Philly's 32nd Ward is bad voting or worst for the Philadelphia Democratic City Committee.
I have been in close
contact with Jimmie Moore, former judge, political candidate for Ward Leader, 32nd Ward, in
the last Primary Election 2014.
There is a civil cover
sheet; defendants are Garry Williams and Judith Robinson, Democratic County
Executive Committee of Philadelphia. The former Judge Jimmie Moore has
sued concerning the Ward Leader election. It is a civil rights issue.
"We are ready!" says Judge Moore.
The Civil Court will
have a hearing tomorrow, Thursday, June 26, 2014 at 10AM in Courtroom 3A.
His lawyer, Larry Otter, says the lawsuit may be filed as soon as today in federal court.
Moore challenged ward leader Gary Williams' bid for a third term. They agree that the first vote ended in a 20-20 tie.
Williams and Moore agree that Moore narrowly won a second vote during the ward meeting.
Tie votes are supposed to go directly to the Democratic City Committee's Contest Committee. The full
Democratic City Committee voted Monday that Williams would have prevailed 21-20 because a committeewoman wanted to change her vote.
Moore, said he sees himself as the rightfully elected ward leader.
"I'm going to have a ward meeting Monday," Moore said. "I'm going to continue on with ward business." That meeting did take place on Monday, June 23, 2014.
