On March 5, the North Carolina State Court of Appeals issued a ruling over the issue of the make-up of the State Board of Elections. See this story. The story also reveals that Governor Roy Cooper will let HB 90 take effect on March 15, even though he won’t sign it. HB 90 is the bill that said the Board should have nine members, including one member who is neither a Republican nor a Democrat.
It sounds like Cooper will sue against the new provisions.
Who decides if the 9th member is NOT affiliated with the major parties?
