The latest update in the ongoing legal saga of the 2024 North Carolina state Supreme Court election.
The latest filing boosts Riggs’ chances of prevailing in the ongoing election saga.
Meanwhile, Jefferson Griffin could be bolstered by a separate GOP scheme to gain power over elections.
State Supreme Court Justice Allison Riggs held a rally in Raleigh on Monday morning over the recent court rulings.
Around 60,000 ballots will be counted in the ongoing state Supreme Court race.
The stay comes after Allison Riggs and the NCSBE both appealed a ruling from a three-judge panel in the North Carolina appeals court.
The court overturned a lower court’s decision dismissing the challenges filed by Jefferson Griffin.
“It’s time for this election to come to an end and for voters to know that their votes will count in the state, that they follow the rules in place at the time of the election.”
The letter was signed by a bipartisan coalition of more than 200 former justices, judges and attorneys.
A three-judge panel will hear Jefferson Griffin’s case on March 21.
