T.I. and Isaac Hayes III might have helped to end Felicia Moore‘s shot at being Atlanta’s next mayor by spreading fake news … at least according to the candidate herself.
Moore, who just lost ATL’s runoff race against Andre Dickens, tells TMZ … T.I. and Hayes have been spreading “lies” about her and her proposed policies, which likely helped to tip the scales against her in the final days leading up to election day. Now, she’s calling them out over it and thinks others should too.

The misinformation Moore thinks they spread is a made-up smear against her based on an article they screen-grabbed and reposted — its headline read, “Woman Running for Atlanta Mayor Promises to CLOSE ALL STRIP CLUBS!!!”
Neither Tip nor Hayes — son of late, great soul singer Isaac Hayes — attached the OG source, but the story can be easily found with a search.

The article posted an out-of-context clip of Moore from years ago — talking about special use permits for certain businesses — which had nothing to do with strip clubs.
Instead, it was about recording studios — Moore says she never mentioned strip clubs during the campaign, and thinks T.I. was well aware of that when he showcased the bogus headline. She says the rapper’s been outspoken against her, so she sees this as just another attempt to make her look bad.

Seeing as how she lost, Moore says it appears T.I. and Hayes’ efforts worked … which she calls total BS.
