Almost six months after the election, Jefferson Griffin and the North Carolina GOP are still working to overturn the will of voters who elected Justice Riggs to keep her seat in November.
Justice Riggs and groups across North Carolina remain committed to standing up for voters. Right now, Justice Riggs and other partners, including NC Democratic Party, are fighting in federal court to ensure our rights are protected.
On Tuesday, voters had a victory in federal court when the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals granted Justice Riggs’ motion to pause any “cure” process from moving forward. The court decided that military and other overseas voters should not be forced to jump through additional hoops to ensure their lawful ballots are counted until the courts decide whether Griffin’s challenges are unconstitutional.
That means “curing” won’t move forward until the court rules on the merits (or lack thereof) of Jefferson Griffin’s effort to thwart the will of voters.
In the meantime, we’re getting ready for any possibility.
Join Justice Allison Riggs, the NC Democratic Party, Down Home, and Carolina Federation to find where things stand and how YOU can stay ready for action.
