US EditionNorth Carolina Republicans seek control over state and local election boards ahead of 2024
- A new bill in North Carolina aims to limit the power of the state governor and take away their ability to appoint members of the State Board of Elections, potentially affecting future presidential elections in the state.
- The proposed legislation would lead to a revamped state board with an equal number of Democrats and Republicans, increasing the need for bipartisan consensus in decision-making. However, critics worry that this could lead to the refusal to certify valid election results.
- Voting rights advocates raise concerns about potential long lines and reduced access to early voting sites if deadlocked boards can't agree on certain matters. There are also worries about the potential appointment of an inexperienced executive director, leading to mistakes and confusion in running statewide elections.
