Georgia Trans elected official slammed with lawsuit

by Matt | November 20th, 2007 |

Michelle Bruce, a transgender member of the Riverdale, Georgia City Council is being sued by those who lost the election to her.

In the lawsuit, the sore losers say that Bruce is guilty of fraud because she ran as woman. The suit names Michelle Bruce as Michael Bruce, even though Bruce’s voter registration, driver’s license and candidacy filings all listed her as Michelle.

  2. Looking at the list of additional objections mentioned in the story, I’d say “sore losers” is right. It sounds like a kid coming up with a list of reasons why he should’ve gotten his way.

  3. A co-worker here at the paper said that is sounded like someone was upset they got beat by a woman - a trans woman at that, lol. Straight boys got their masculinity hurt, I guess? :)
