North Carolina Supreme Court passing for now on ruling if ballots in close race are valid
- The North Carolina Supreme Court dismissed a request from candidate Jefferson Griffin to rule on over 60,000 ballots in a close race for the court seat, maintaining the current tally for now.
- Justice Allison Riggs leads Griffin by 734 votes out of more than 5.5 million ballots cast, with the decision to dismiss Griffin's petition being unanimous among the justices.
- Griffin claims that many absentee votes were cast without complying with laws, while Riggs argues that Griffin's actions could disenfranchise legitimate voters.
- The court ordered that the State Elections Board not certify a winner until after the case goes to trial, which could lead to further appeals.
