According to Knoxville's Metro Pulse, a citizen has filed a formal complaint with the Blount County Election Commission stating that Rep. Doug Overbey (R-Maryville) cannot serve as both a sitting judge and a state legislator at the same time, and is therefore not qualified to run against incumbent Sen. Raymond Finney (R-Maryville) for State Senate or hold his current seat in the House.
Tom Dubois, another member of the Tennessee House, is a city judge in Columbia.
per the citizen- ain't a thing Blount County election Commission can do about it.
