A coalition of Democratic groups aims to prevent disenfranchisement in the November general election.
A trio of Democratic groups sued the North Carolina State Board of Elections this week, alleging that the state is engaging in the "unlawful practice of rejecting absentee ballots based on irrelevant technicalities, and then arbitrarily denying certain voters the opportunity to address these minor errors."
According to the lawsuit, filed on Tuesday by the North Carolina Democratic Party, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, voters can currently correct mismatched signatures on questioned ballots, but if the ballot is missing a witness or the address of a witness, then it is rejected.
The suit notes that a suit filed in May held "that the enforcement of numerous North Carolina elections statutes in the November 2020 election violated numerous federal constitutional rights, including the right to vote protected by the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution." The current suit alleges that a Cure Memo issues by the North Carolina Board of Elections fails to remedy the issues.
Because they're Republicans!
Possibly, they could flip a few of those Orange County districts back.
Pondering the huge numbers of Democrats requesting mail-in ballots, I’ve come to the conclusion that every single one of those Democrats will go to the polls to vote in person, then return home and mail in their ballots in order to create maximum chaos in the election.
