NC Court of Appeals gives over 60,000 challenged voters 15 days to prove eligibility

RALEIGH
In a split decision, a panel of judges on the North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled Friday that tens of thousands of votes cast in the contested 2024 Supreme Court race should be recounted and verified — potentially flipping the election results.

The court ordered that over 60,000 voters whose eligibility has been challenged by Republican Jefferson Griffin should be given 15 days to provide documentation to election workers showing they are able to vote. If they fail to do so, their votes would be thrown out.

“The inclusion of even one unlawful ballot in a vote total dilutes the lawful votes and ‘effectively ‘disenfranchises’ lawful voters,” the panel’s two Republicans wrote in the majority opinion.

Judge Toby Hampson, a Democrat, dissented, noting that Griffin has not proven that any of the challenged voters are actually ineligible.

5. I can't find any specific end date for the "15 days."

Is that "15 days" as in two weeks plus one day, in which case voters really only have 11 days, excluding weekends when election offices aren't open? Or is it three work-day weeks?

Also, no one is talking about the impossible logistics of this. Say all 60K voters go to their local elections office. Maybe one or two people are legally able to verify and correct ballots. There is no logistical way this can be done in 15 days. Election offices would be overrun and many voters disenfranchised because the wait to get to docs reviewed/approved/corrected for each person is too heavy a load for the municipalities. Let's say it takes an average of 10 minutes to update a record. That's 6 records an hour at 40 hours a week is only 240 corrected registrations in one week, or (in the best case scenario of 15 days excluding weekends) is only 720 people having their registrations verified. Obviously, most of these registrations will be from cities (blue hubs) which means there might be 5 people who are able to fix registrations, that's still only 4320 people per city who are able to get their registrations fixed, so with 76 cities in NC, that's still only a little over 30K of voters served. It's wholly doubtful that half the challenged votes come from outside urban areas. This is the stupidest, most racist bullshit to come out of a state court in a very long time.

‘Fine, I challenge all of your votes’? As long as everyone is just being ridiculous.
