‘Accurate voter registration rolls are critical to ensure that elections in North Carolina are conducted fairly, accurately, and without fraud.’
‘Accurate voter registration rolls are critical to ensure that elections in North Carolina are conducted fairly, accurately, and without fraud.’
‘You chose a path forward where power stays in the hands of people, not politicians.’
‘While I do not fully agree with the District Court’s analysis, I respect the court’s holding.’
Exactly how many ballots could still be affected — and whether it could flip the result — remains unclear.
Friday’s decision, if ultimately upheld, could flip the outcome of the election — the nation’s only 2024 race that is still undecided.
Most of the ballots being challenged were cast by voters whose registration records lacked either a driver’s license number or the last four digits of a Social Security number.
‘These votes have been counted. They’ve been recounted. The math is not in doubt.’
The timing of the dismissal was a bit surprising.
Election results show Democrat Allison Riggs ahead of GOP challenger Jefferson Griffin by just 734 votes from over 5.5 million ballots cast.
Republicans want some ballots they say were case illegally thrown out.
