Fulton County Board of Elections throws out Hawkins’ petition for Gloversville council | The Daily Gazette SECTIONS Shares0 GLOVERSVILLE  The Fulton County Board of Elections on Tuesday formally rejected Black Lives Matter activist Lashawn Hawkins’ petition to run on the Democratic Party line for city councilperson-at-large. The board conducted a short hearing Tuesday morning at 10 a.m. with Hawkins and current Councilman-at-large William Rowback Jr. It was Rowback who filed a formal objection to Hawkins’ petition, on the grounds that she had written that she was a Democrat on her petition, when she is actually registered as an independent. The Gloversville Democratic Party Committee, led by Chairwoman Robin Wentworth, voted 7-2 on March 11 to allow Hawkins to run on the Democratic Party line in November, even though she had missed the Feb. 14 deadline to change her party registration to Democrat.
