DELAND -- The aftermath of the general election in Volusia County grew
more tangled Tuesday, as a local voting rights advocate sued to throw
out the results.
The suit, filed by DeLeon Springs resident Susan Pynchon, targets the
race for supervisor of elections, alleging that former County
Councilwoman Ann McFall's victory was based on "inadequate and
incomplete information regarding election results."
While the suit focuses on the most prominent countywide race, it asks
that all general election results in the county be set aside.
"What happens (if) that election is set aside, whether there's another
election, we'll have to wait and cross that bridge when we come to
it," said attorney Daniel Vaughen of DeLand, who filed the suit in
circuit court in DeLand.
