You're right horsey. Both should have been thrown off the ballot if indeed the Baker petition was that much in error.
The law is the law and if the candidate does not LIVE in the voting district for a full year they should be disqualified.
The Baker petitions were in error because of illigitimate signatures? Seems to be a cut and dry case and he should be disqualifed as well. If people enforce rules and laws without prejiduce as they were created to be done, it would be so much easier. When personal favors are part of the equation the system breaks.
Let me restate the write in comment. She simply can't win. There are rules that a write in candidate and her supporters must follow and it's difficult to do. I don't remember a write in candidate winning in this area in my adult life.
