“Open the door”
The North Carolina State Board of Elections (NCSBE) is facing a new lawsuit after the Republican National Committee (RNC) sued the state, alleging that it opened the door to voting for non-citizens.
The lawsuit, filed last week in Wake County by the Republican National Committee and the North Carolina Republican Party, accuses the NCSBE and its members Alan Hirsch, Jeff Carmon, Siobhan Millen, Stacey Eggers IV and Kevin Lewis of failing to require people to show identification to prove their citizenship.
The lawsuit alleges that the elections department violated the Help America Vote Act by not checking the identification of approximately 225,000 voters, “opening the door to voting for non-U.S. citizens.”
North Carolina is the first state in the nation to open the polls, with ballots being mailed to voters in the battleground state starting September 6th.
“NCSBE has once again failed in its job to remove non-citizens from the voter rolls, raising doubts and putting our elections at risk,” Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley said in a statement. “We are committed to fundamental principles and common-sense laws that state that our elections are decided solely by the American people. Willful failure to comply with the law so soon after our nation’s most important election is unacceptable. We will fight every day to ensure that NCSBE follows the law, cleans the voter rolls, and protects the voting rights of North Carolinians.”…Read more
