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

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.
