PHOENIX — The unsuccessful Republican candidate for treasurer is suing the defeated GOP contender for schools chief over what he says are lies told to others during the campaign about his sex life.
Elijah Norton claims in legal papers filed in Maricopa County Superior Court that Kimberly Yee spread claims that he tried to bribe her, had a boyfriend who wore women’s clothes, had a sexual affair with a married male personal assistant, and threatened her with physical harm. None of that, Norton said, is true.
But Norton wants more than a finding by a court that he was defamed. He also wants more than $2.6 million.
