NC elections board moves to make it easier to toss voters' ballots

[RandySF]

The state Board of Elections on Thursday voted along party lines to endorse a rule that will make it easier for voters’ ballots to be thrown out if they don’t show a photo ID.

As it is now, all five county board members have to agree to throw out a provisional ballot because they think the voter is lying about the reason they do not have photo ID. Under the new rules, bipartisan agreement would no longer be required. Only a majority vote would be needed to throw out a ballot based on belief that the voter lied about the lack of photo ID.

The state board’s three Republicans supported the change, while its two Democrats were opposed.

The proposed rule “feeds into the lie that there’s a ton of voter fraud,” said Democrat Jeff Carmon

1. Lawsuits.....

Republicans hate freedom and the democracy way.

The true communists.

2. "The proposed rule 'feeds into the lie that there's a ton of voter fraud'..."

That is because they cannot win without cheating so they have created yet another way to discredit any winners but their own.

And, the second we do anything other than deny their efforts, they have won.

I hope the poll workers are ready for the level of interference that is coming in this election.
