NC Supreme Court

[Jmoser]

Not a bad thing.

'In North Carolina, Republicans were victorious, claiming the two open seats on the state Supreme Court and flipping its makeup to a 5-2 Republican majority — clinching power for the first time in six years.

That switch is certain to factor into major legal battles in the coming years over issues such as redistricting, gun rights and abortion access.'

Yeah, assuming they actually DO anything with it.

And the next one up for election is a D I believe.

This is a very, VERY good thing. Now if they can get just get rid of Justice Earls whenever her term is up for re-election, it will be a GREAT thing. Judge Morgan is a democrat, but he has been a Superior Court/trial judge before, and he is a moderate with a lot of real world experience. He is not a radical liberal like Earls.

And hopefully, FINALLY, voter ID!
