Superior Court Presiding Judge Robert C. Naraja issued an order today, Thursday, dismissing Tinian Mayor Ramon Dela Cruz’s election challenge over the victory of Joey Patrick San Nicolas in the Tinian mayoral race.

Naraja ruled that in light of the evidence obtained at the recount, Dela Cruz’s remaining claims do not satisfy the actual prejudice requirement and the complaint must be dismissed.

More details to follow.
