The legal challenge to NC Justice Allison Riggs is not complicated. Riggs won the election by 734 votes. Judge Griffin lost. The only way he wins is by throwing out over 60,000 votes and he’s counting on a partisan Republican court to deliver. #ncpol www.newsobserver.com/news/politic... - ThreadSky

Is there a person/branch/org we call to let our opinions be known for this like what legislators have?

awakeneddragon.bsky.social•38 days ago

Just curious: if the situation was reversed would Griffin agree those 60,000 ballots should be set aside if Riggs challenged them? Probably not. He thinks Republicans are the only legit voters and he's the only legit winner. WTF is wrong with these guys?

Not complicated in the least 😡

Can we prioritize impeaching Trump immediately for releasing 1,500 January 6th prisoners and Ross Ulbricht? This move is deeply unpopular. Additionally, we should address other actions ranked by bipartisan unpopularity.

So true.

Just their votes for Supreme Court, though, right? Their votes for every other race still count?

postcardactivism.bsky.social•40 days ago

I believe this is true, and I don’t understand their logic.

mattbellviolinist.bsky.social•40 days ago

There is no logic. There’s no solid legal argument. It’s a naked power grab. It’s what the NCGOP does.

We’re a purple state (voted red for prez and blue for gov the last 3 times) and the NCGOP has gerrymandered us into a 10-4 congressional delegation.

Total corruption.

Does he not look evil to others, or is it just me?

Why is this still a think? For 248 years, this election is called. How do the Nazis get so many do-overs?

I hate this farce of a US government where laws only apply to some. We have lost freedom over our own bodies. Freedom of speech has ripped away. The rights of those born here have also been taken. This country is going down the shitter so fast I can't keep up!

Disgusting attempt by the NC Supreme Court to overturn the election by throwing out legally cast votes.

I’m assuming my vote would be one of those 60k because I didn’t vote for positions where there was only a choice for “R”. What can we as citizens of the state do?

wileynickel.com•41 days ago

Please make your voice heard on this and continue to educate North Carolinians about what’s going on.

spotto.bsky.social•41 days ago

Absolutely. Spent plenty of time working with the Cleveland county Dems. Heck of an effort that fell short, but was not wasted, I hope.

👍 I’ve been talking with people on that list. Folks who did nothing wrong!
