Summary

The North Carolina Supreme Court, in a 5-1 Republican-led decision, blocked certification of Democratic Justice Allison Riggs as the winner of a state Supreme Court race.

Riggs leads Republican Jefferson Griffin by 734 votes after recounts, but Griffin claims 60,000 ballots were illegally cast and seeks to have them invalidated.

The court will now hear Griffin’s challenge, with briefs due by January 24.

Democrats criticized the move as partisan, while the lone Democratic justice dissented, arguing there is no basis to delay certification or disrupt the election process.

      Inbreeding. When 51% of your base is told their primary purpose is to breed, and they’re all prejudiced against people that don’t look exactly like them… you get a lot of “low-quality AI” faces and brains.

      Every single time I see the professional headshots these people use I wonder this exact thing. To ground things in reality for a moment, is there a cultural component to the upper class far right that makes them more likely to undergo multiple cosmetic surgeries?

      These aren’t normal heads on these people.
