Jefferson Griffin, the Republican judge who lost his bid for North Carolina's Supreme Court, is appealing a recent court decision that upheld his 2024 defeat as his legal team continues its effort to get some 65,000 ballots tossed out.
On Friday, Wake County Superior Court ruled in favor of the state Board of Elections and state Supreme Court Judge Allison Riggs, the Democratic incumbent who won the election by 734 votes, a result confirmed by multiple recounts. The board had previously denied Griffin's protests of the election results. Griffin responded to the denial of his protests by filing this case against the board.
