North Carolina election board faces 7th lawsuit in 52 days
(The Center Square) – North Carolina’s State Board of Elections says a mobile phone identification is acceptable for the state’s voter ID law.
The state and national Republican organizations on Thursday in court said it is not.
Seven times in 52 days, the five-member bipartisan state authority and its executive director who manage the elections have been sued. Playing offense as plaintiffs for the fourth time are the North Carolina Republican Party and the Republican National Convention, which is led by the former head of the state party.
Three weeks ago, the state board by 3-2 approved the Mobile UNC One Card that is used on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It’s voluntary there for students and staff with Apple phones.
