NC Civitas<\/a> released the following on its website today:<\/p>\n

RALEIGH<\/a> \u2013 The\u00a0Civitas Center for Law and Freedom (CLF) has\u00a0filed a federal lawsuit requesting a restraining order<\/a> against including ballots<\/a> cast via same-day registration<\/a> in the 2016 election, pending further investigation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can read the lawsuit that was filed in Eastern District federal court\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can read the complaint sent\u00a0to the NC State Board of Elections<\/a>\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A press conference will be held later today to relay more details. Civitas President<\/a> Francis De Luca will be available to the press for questions at that time.\u00a0To arrange an interview, please contact Demi Dowdy at demi.dowdy@nccivitas.org or 919-747-8064.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Civitas President Francis De Luca said, \u201cTo count ballots without verification of same-day registration information\u00a0discriminates by treating one class of voters<\/a> differently from another.\u00a0Furthermore, this\u00a0calls into question the outcome of close elections<\/a> such as the one we are still in the middle of in North Carolina<\/a>.\u00a0Legitimate voters should never have their votes cancelled by illegitimate voters. The State Board of Elections should examine every ballot cast via same-day registration to verify that every vote cast\u00a0is genuine and legitimate.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are some serious questions about the validity of the election for governor in North Carolina. There are also questions about some of the ballots in other statewide offices. Same-day registration needs to end. There is sufficient time before an election to register. There are also various ways to register that make registration very easy.<\/p>\n

I previously posted an article<\/a> about specific instances of fraud in North Carolina during this election. Although the incidents I cited would not change the outcome, it is quite possible that those incidents are only the tip of the iceberg. We need to find a way to make our elections more secure. Voter ID might be a good start.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
