North Carolina Republicans enact voting changes that weaken governor's ability to oversee elections
pbs.org/newshour/politics/north-carolina-republicans-enact-voting-changes-that-weaken-governors-ability-to-oversee-elections
Quick Glance: North Carolina: Republicans Override Governor's Veto to Enact Election Overhaul Ahead of 2024
- Republican lawmakers in North Carolina enacted significant changes to the state's election laws on Tuesday, prompting immediate legal challenges from Democrats and voting rights groups.
- Two new laws, passed in a state that could be crucial in next year's presidential election, will alter the composition of state and local election boards, shorten the time for returning mail-in ballots, and grant new powers to partisan poll watchers.
- Among the changes, election boards will be evenly divided by party, a measure critics argue could result in deadlocks when deciding early voting locations and certifying election results.
- GOP legislators, holding supermajorities in the North Carolina House and Senate, overrode vetoes by Democratic Governor Roy Cooper to implement the measures.
