A North Carolina appeals court has allowed a law to take effect that strips the governor of the power to appoint members to the State Board of Elections.
This move enables Republicans, including State Auditor Dave Boliek, to take control of the board, potentially flipping its partisan majority for the first time since 2017. The decision could have significant implications for how elections are administered in the state, especially with upcoming elections on the horizon. Governor Stein, a Democrat, plans to appeal the ruling, but the board's control could change hands within hours.
The shift highlights ongoing political battles over election oversight in North Carolina.
