Then he needs to show some balls and nullify the ruling. He works for the People of NC, and no one else.

False. The Oath of Office for the North Carolina Attorney General requires the holder of the office to obey federal laws before state laws. When the 4th Circuit orders you to do something, you do it, unless you can get a stay from the US Supreme Court.

"I, _______________, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and maintain the Constitution and laws of the United States, and the Constitution and laws of North Carolina not inconsistent therewith, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of my office as Attorney General, so help me God."

Well then the ruling concerned Virginia, not NC. The attorney general should have said I will continue to support the WILL OF THE PEOPLE until the US Supreme Court tells me otherwise. He didn’t because he’s a spineless democrat, who takes his marching orders from the White House.
