A federal judge ordered the North Carolina Board of Elections on May 5 to certify the results of the state’s 2024 Supreme Court election and confirm the victory of Democratic incumbent Justice Allison Riggs after the results were challenged by a Republican judge.
In a 68-page ruling, District Judge Richard E. Myers II ruled in favor of Riggs, dismissing a request for injunctive relief filed by Judge Jefferson Griffin, a Republican who trailed the Democrat by 734 votes in November’s election.
