Was she? I don’t actually see that anywhere in the linked KKTV article, it just says that district boundaries changed, she no longer lives in the district she used to represent, and she may not have enough signatures quickly enough to get on the ballot for the district she’s now in.
I mean, don’t get me wrong, she sounds awful and I’d be happy to hear she’s not on any school board, but, I don’t see anything about her committing fraud anywhere in there.
This is the situation as we understand it. In the process of trying to qualify to run this fall for the DD5 seat, Ivy submitted a sworn affidavit that she had moved outside of the DD she currently represents. Under the law, she has to vacate that seat immediately since she no longer resides there. However, she did not submit enough valid signatures to be certified for the November 2023 ballot. Therefore, she is out of her current seat immediately having "moved," but is not eligible for the 2023 ballot. The board concluded she committed election fraud because she attempted to lease an apartment in the district that was not her primary residence. Her primary residence has never been in D49.
