NC: Federal judge orders board to certify state Supreme Court election

Source: The Hill

“A federal judge ordered the North Carolina Board of Elections on Monday to certify the results of the state’s Supreme Court election, giving Democratic incumbent Justice Allison Riggs the upper hand in the still-contested race. Chief U.S. District Judge Richard E. Myers ruled Monday that the state board must certify the results of the November election, which have been the target of legal challenges by Republican Judge Jefferson Griffin. … Myers’s Monday ruling said the ballots challenged by Griffin should be counted, stating the ‘retroactive invalidation of absentee ballots cast by overseas military and civilian voters violates those voters’ substantive due process rights.'” ()5/05/25)
