Summary
A former elections director is suing Missouri’s Secretary of State, Denny Hoskins, accusing him of illegally manipulating election results and firing him for having “too much integrity.” The lawsuit, the second against Hoskins in recent months, alleges he used state funds to sway a local vote, ordered an unauthorized recount that changed the winner, and tried to mislead a federal judge. The fired director, who was overseas as an election observer, claims his access to Capitol facilities was restricted after he testified in a federal probe—just before his dismissal. His attorney says he’s a loyal Republican but won’t sacrifice fair elections for party loyalty, and warns that no replacement has been hired for the critical election integrity role ahead of future elections.
