Ten people have filed a complaint over the primary election on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation that saw incumbent president Geri Small get the most votes.
Rival candidate David Roundstone said he and the other complainants have asked the tribal court to consider a recount or possibly a new election. The group claims the primary was marked by several irregularities.
The tribe's general election is November 2, the same day as the state and federal elections.
