Nearly two months after Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman won re-election to her job, a federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging her candidacy in the 2022 election. A Republican attorney had sought to have Freeman removed from the election ballot.
The N.C. State Board of Elections is asking a federal court to dismiss a lawsuit challenging Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman’s re-election bid. David Blackwelder, a Republican attorney and former Wake County sheriff candidate, filed the suit Aug. 12. Blackwelder argues that Freeman is ineligible for the election because she failed to sign campaign paperwork when she filed for office in December.
