15 connections·16 entities in this video→Election Victory and Challenge
- ⚖️ Associate Justice Allison Riggs won her North Carolina Supreme Court reelection by a narrow margin of 734 votes, with results confirmed by two independent recounts.
- 🗳️ Despite the confirmed win, her opponent is challenging the election, initially seeking to toss 68,000 votes, aiming to overturn the outcome rather than concede.
Voters at Risk
- ⚠️ The challenge targets specific groups of voters, including military and overseas voters who used a federal voting mechanism.
- 🎯 The opponent's strategy appears to be cherry-picking voters from specific counties, suggesting a politically motivated attempt to disenfranchise certain demographics.
- 📜 These voters followed all rules on election day, and their votes are now at risk due to the opponent's attempt to change rules post-election.
The "Cure" Process and its Implications
- ⏳ A "cure" process is being prepared, which involves re-verifying ballots from voters who may be difficult to reach, such as deployed military personnel.
- 🌐 Riggs is fighting this "cure" process in federal court, arguing that these voters did nothing wrong and that the process sets a dangerous precedent.
- 🚩 The situation is framed as an existential fight for democracy, where disappointed losers cannot unilaterally change election laws and toss ballots after an election.
Call to Action and Support
- 🤝 Supporters are asked to visit riggs4ourcourts.com and check the "Griffin List" to help identify and contact voters whose ballots are being challenged.
- 📞 A person-to-person connection is crucial to ensure these voters are aware of the challenge and have the opportunity to provide necessary information.
- 💰 Financial contributions are also welcomed to support the legal bills and outreach efforts to ensure every vote is counted.
