A judge dismissed charges on Tuesday against two St. Clair Shores election workers who were accused of taking steps that allowed four people to vote twice in the summer primary election.

Judge Joseph C. Oster threw out charges of falsifying election records, voting absentee and in-person and offering to vote more than once against Patricia Guciardo, 73, and Emily McClintock, 42, following an approximately 3-hour preliminary examination in 40th District Court in St. Clair Shores.

The Michigan attorney general may still appeal the dismissals. One other poll worker and four voters still face felony charges.
