The propublica report on the efforts of the right -wing activists to ban the ballots, the North Carolina Democrats have introduced a bill aimed at avoiding voting, based on a change of rules after the election.
A The Law on Voters’ Protection and dependenceLast week, the North Carolina House said that ballots will be calculated in the state elections on the election day. It also forbids voices to reject votes or business errors in voter registration.
Propublica reports As for the 2024 elections, North Carolina activists and members of the election integrity are a national group led by A. The lawyer is inherent For the unsuccessful campaign of President Donald Trump to cancel the 2020 elections – discussed whether protests aimed at voters whose registration information was incomplete can help candidates cancel losses in close elections.
The strategy was discussed on this call that Popublica received a record, after which the judge of the Appeal Court of the Republican Court Jefferson Griffin was used to challenge his losses of the 734th Democrat voice Ellison Riggs for a place in the Supreme Court.
“The propublica report shows that people hunted on the basis to challenge the election ahead of time,” said Phil Rubin, a member of the Democratic House, which was the main author of the bill. “Instead of trying to actively correct these problems before the election, Judge Griffin was in the back number tried to use them to cancel his losses. This law would prevent such abuses in the future and force candidates to act for the sake of voters, not himself.”
Griffin’s press -secretary Paul Schumker said he could not answer Rubin’s comments, his bill or propublica questions, since the North Carolina Code prohibits judges and judicial candidates for the court.
“It would be a violation to comment on the legislation, since the law is subject to trial if it is adopted by the law,” Schumker said.

The Rubin’s bill also stipulates that the election lawsuits must be considered on the North Carolina’s courts in order so that the candidates could solve problems before the elections, not after.
Though some Northern Carolina and National Republicans Criticized the problems of Griffin, the bill funded by the Democrat faces uncertain prospects in the legislative body controlled by GoP.
“The bill is not going anywhere,” said Mitch Koka, Senior Political Analyst of the Conservative John Locke Foundation. “This is rather a statement about the approach of the Democratic Cava to the Griffin-Riggs elections and how they think it was to play.”
The North Carolina Governor and his legislative leadership did not respond to comment requests.
Rubin said that while the bill reflects the issues played in the North Carolina, it can also serve as a model for other countries.
“There is no reason to think that these tactics will be limited to the North Carolina,” he said at a press conference on Thursday, conducted by the Democratic National Commission and the Democratic Party of North Carolina about the Supreme Court trial in which he presented the bill.
