“This is a victory for North Carolina voters and the rule of law,” Riggs wrote on social media last week after a federal judge ordered her 2024 victory to be made official. “But we must keep fighting to elect judges who will put the Constitution over party and personal ambition.”

Looks like NCDems is organizing a virtual phone bank to help reach voters on the Griffin List... https://www.mobilize.us/ncdems/event/750743/

UPDATE: I signed up for that Zoom and got this message:
"We are actively planning how to defend every vote given this changed landscape – and we need to make sure that our process is watertight. Litigation is ongoing, and the 15-day countdown won’t start until all the appeals are finished.

So, in lieu of tomorrow's phone bank, the North Carolina Democratic Party will hold an emergency virtual briefing to walk through what the ruling means and what happens next. Defending this victory will be a massive operation that requires every one of you."

NC voters! Make sure you're not on the Griffin List:
https://thegriffinlist.com/
and share with your friends and family so they can, too.

If you are - due to a partisan and groundless appellate court decision, you have 15 days to cure your ballot. Find your county's Board of Elections here: https://vt.ncsbe.gov/BOEInfo/

You'll need to show them a photo ID or other approved form of documentation:
https://www.ncsbe.gov/voting/voter-id

This is a naked attempt by Repugnicans** to steal a state Supreme Court seat. Don't let this asshole win.

The Griffin List

A list of 60,273 North Carolina voters – these are registered voters who showed ID to early vote in the November 2024 election – whose votes Jefferson Griffin wants to not be counted. Griffin lost a close election for the North Carolina Supreme Court, confirmed via two recounts. He then sued the North Carolina State Board of Elections to have the 60,273 votes nullified.
