Ah, so illegality is upheld as long "we're in a hurry" and don't have time to look at it right now? First act as SC Justice is kind of shameful, to be honest. Do your fricking job.

North Carolina Senate Leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham, issued a statement regarding the high court's decision.

"This is the first of two similar, but not identical, cases pending before the U.S. Supreme Court involving the mid-election rewrite of North Carolina's election laws," Berger said. "The precedent set in this year's Supreme Court decisions will determine the future of America's elections. The question is simple: May unelected bureaucrats on a state panel controlled by one political party overrule election laws passed by legislatures, even after ballots have already been cast? If public confidence in elections is important to our system of government, then hopefully the answer to that question is no."

How exactly do you consider this her first act? would it surprise you if it was simply a finalized yet unreleased opinion and she didn’t have the opportunity to participate?

This thread was already made yesterday and it means nothing substantively—a Motion to Expedite was denied, the ballots will be separated for a later challenge, which she can participate in that decision in PA. She wouldn’t have made a difference in the NC vote either.
