North Carolina voters must fix ballots in 15 days or be disenfranchised
A Republican-majority panel of the North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled to disenfranchise up to 65,000 voters in the state's contentious Supreme Court election unless they can fix their ballots in 15 days. The panel overturned a lower court’s decision that had protected the ballots and had dismissed challenges filed by Republican candidate Jefferson Griffin.
“This does not just affect North Carolina,” the Democratic candidate, Justice Allison Riggs, said in an interview with Marc today. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy.”
