North Carolina judges back Republican colleague in bid to toss votes and overturn election
More than 65,000 people in North Carolina who believed they were eligible to vote could have their ballots thrown out nearly five months after election day,
flipping the results of a supreme court election, a state appeals court ruled on Friday.
The 2-1 ruling from the North Carolina court of appeals came in response to Republicans’ months-long effort to overturn the results of the state supreme court election in November.
The Democrat Allison #Riggs, who currently sits on the court, defeated appellate judge Jefferson #Griffin, a Republican, by 734 votes.
After the election, Griffin filed a protest seeking to get around 60,000 votes thrown out.
Griffin currently sits on the North Carolina court of appeals – the body that issued Friday’s ruling. A panel of three of his colleagues heard the case.
“To permit unlawful votes to be counted along with lawful ballots in contested elections effectively ‘disenfranchises’ those voters who cast legal ballots, at least where the counting of unlawful votes determines an election’s outcome,” Judges John Tyson and Fred Gore wrote for the majority.
In a statement, Riggs said: “We will be promptly appealing this deeply misinformed decision that threatens to disenfranchise more than 65,000 lawful voters and sets a dangerous precedent, allowing disappointed politicians to thwart the will of the people.”
The election is the only 2024 race still undecided.
The state board of elections previously rejected Griffin’s request and a superior court judge upheld their decision.
Friday’s ruling from the court of appeals overturned that ruling and ordered the state board to give challenged voters 15 days to prove their eligibility.

I have donated to the charity on #NordicFuzzCon, and got this cute and lovely drawing of a loafing Solstice on 10x15cm paper by Fokel! She looks so comfy, I'd love to join her <3
On #NordicFuzzCon, I commissioned HerpyDragon to draw my bard hippogryph, Asterion, on A5 paper!
I love the posing on this one, he's just enjoying the lovely views up above, while holding his trusty lute.
Thank you so much <33
Today's poem:
Yet Gentle Will the Griffin Be
- by Vachel Lindsay
The moon? It is a griffin's egg,
Hatching to-morrow night.
And how the little boys will watch
With shouting and delight
To see him break the shell and stretch
And creep across the sky.
The boys will laugh. The little girls,
I fear, may hide and cry.
Yet gentle will the griffin be,
Most decorous and fat,
And walk up to the milky way
And lap it like a cat.
