Virgin Islands State Senator Removed from Ballot on October 24 May Have Won on Write-in Votes

On October 24, the Virgin Islands Supreme Court removed State Senator Alicia “Chucky” Hansen from the ballot, because it thought she doesn’t meet the qualifications to be a Senator, even though she had just served two terms in the Senate. Instead of appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court, or any federal court, Hansen ran as a write-in candidate. According to this story, those votes haven’t been tallied yet.

The story also reveals that the two independent candidates for Governor of the territory polled over 14%.
