NC Court Threatens to Overturn Election Results | JQJO

A North Carolina appeals court ruled that over 65,000 ballots could be invalidated, potentially overturning the November state Supreme Court election results. The 2-1 decision stems from a Republican challenge to Democrat Allison Riggs's victory over Republican Jefferson Griffin. The court ordered voters to re-verify eligibility within 15 days. Riggs plans to appeal, arguing the ruling disenfranchises voters and sets a dangerous precedent. The state Supreme Court, where Republicans hold a majority if Riggs is recused, will ultimately decide.
