the currently unconstitutional nc board of elections has declined to certify the 9th district race, which the republican won by about 900 votes

http://www.wfae.org/post/nc-elections-board-declines-certify-9th-district-race-after-member-cites-unfortunate-activities#stream/0

quote:

The vice chair of the board, Joshua Malcolm, said he would no longer “turn a blind eye” to what he called “unfortunate activities.” Malcolm, a Democrat, dropped a bombshell.

“I’m very familiar with the unfortunate activities that have happened in my part of the state," Malcolm said during the meeting. "And I am not going to turn a blind eye to what took place to the best of my understanding, which has been ongoing for a number of years, and which has been repeatedly referred to the United States attorney and the district attorneys to clean up. Those things have not taken place.”

Malcolm did not elaborate after making that statement. The board went into session and then declined to certify the results. It cited a state statute that allows the board to “take any action to ensure that an election is determined “without taint of fraud or corruption and without irregularities.”

the elections board might not exist after monday lol

quote:

It’s still unclear what will happen next week at the North Carolina State Board of Elections and Ethics Enforcement, but Republican lawmakers are preparing for “chaos.”

The board, as it’s currently constructed, has nine members, but in October a three-judge panel ruled the board unconstitutional. A stay in the ruling allows the board to operate as is until 11:59 p.m. on Monday. Lawmakers are now angling for a new stay — with or without Gov. Roy Cooper’s approval.

quote:

If the board were to revert back to the way it was in 2016, its lobbying arm would have to go back to the secretary of state’s office and ethics enforcement would fall under the authority of the Ethics Commission — which currently does not exist.

nah the dissolution order is because the board itself is unconstitutional

it was formed as part of the series of power grab bills the legislature passed in an emergency session after the democrat won the governor's race in 2016, almost all of which have been struck down since

The chairman of the North Carolina State Board of Elections has resigned.

The Washington Post reported Saturday that Andy Penry has stepped down as leader of the board, saying “he did not want his partisan views to undermine a widening investigation into alleged election fraud in the 9th Congressional District race.”

Efforts to reach Penry were not successful.

Penry, a Democrat, has come under fire from state Republican leaders after his social media posts on Twitter about President Donald Trump suggested the board’s investigation was tilted, they said.

the best case scenario is whatever state board of elections agency exists at the end of the month calls for a new election next year and the seat just goes unfilled for a while
