LAS VEGAS (AP) — A court hearing was postponed in Nevada on a bid by a Republican congressional candidate for a re-do of the Nov. 3 election that he lost to an incumbent Las Vegas-area Democrat.
A judge in Las Vegas agreed Monday to let the case be reassigned after a lawyer representing former professional wrestler and GOP candidate Dan Rodimer said the judge's involvement in a Democratic party organization that aims to increase the number of elected women in Congress made it likely she'd be biased against Rodimer.
Rodimer claims voter fraud and ballot-counting irregularities led to his loss to U.S. Rep. Susie Lee.
