St. Louis County Circuit Judge Thomas Albus issued a ruling Tuesday in a county-funded lawsuit that divided County Council members over who was the rightfully elected council chair: 1st District Councilwoman Rita Days, D-Bel Nor, or 5th District Councilwoman Lisa Clancy, D-Maplewood. Albus sided with Days and the current bipartisan majority of the council and rejected the county’s legal arguments.
Clancy, the council chair for 2020, appeared to be elected chair Jan. 5 on a 4-3 vote that included outgoing council member Rochelle Gray, after a Charter change said that new council members wouldn’t be sworn in until the second Tuesday of January instead of Jan. 1, as had been traditional. Those same members appeared to elect 6th District Councilman Ernie Trakas, R-Oakville, as vice chair. Trakas voted with the four to elect himself and Clancy.

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. A judge has determined Rita Days is the chairwoman of the St. Louis County Council and Mark Harder is the vice-chair, despite efforts by former Council Chairwoman Lisa Clancy, Councilman Ernie Trakas and Councilwoman Kelli Dunaway to say otherwise.
Judge Thomas Albus ruled in favor of Days, Harder and their fellow council members Tim Fitch and Shalonda Webb, who voted in January to appoint Days as chairwoman and Harder as vice-chair.
Clancy, Trakas, Dunaway and outgoing Councilwoman Rochelle Walton Gray claimed Gray was still in office during the first meeting of the year even though Webb defeated her in the primary election in August.
