Litigation filed last week by the Republican National Committee alleges a memo sent by the North Carolina’s State Board of Elections to county boards of elections instructing them on absentee-by-mail balloting conflicts with state law.
For the board, it’s lawsuit No. 6 in 43 days, and the fourth in 12.
The RNC is joined in the complaint by the North Carolina Republican Party and Virginia Wasserberg, registered in Pasquotank County. They argue the board sent instruction to the 100 county boards that disregards election laws requiring absentee ballot security envelopes to be sealed for them to count.
