North Carolina Supreme Court Dismisses GOP Candidate's Election Challenge
The North Carolina Supreme Court dismissed Republican Judge Jefferson Griffin's attempt to overturn his narrow defeat in the 2024 Supreme Court election, allowing his challenges to proceed in the lower Wake County Superior Court. Griffin, who lost by just 734 votes to incumbent Justice Allison Riggs, claimed thousands of ballots were unlawfully cast and sought to block the certification of the results. The court found that Griffin improperly bypassed established procedures for election challenges, although it allowed a temporary pause on certifying the results to remain in place. Meanwhile, Griffin's contentious arguments regarding voter eligibility and election laws faced significant skepticism from some justices. Riggs expressed disappointment that the court's decision prolongs the election dispute, emphasizing that she was elected 79 days prior and that her race remains the last undecided contest in the country. The decision highlights ongoing tensions surrounding election integrity and voting laws in North Carolina.
