North Carolina court grants control of elections board to state auditor
The North Carolina governor has appointed members to the state board of elections for over a century. Unless the state Supreme Court intervenes, that may change.

NC Court of Appeals just ruled that it was A-OK to take the appointment power over the NC Board of Elections from the Gov & give it to the Auditor (📰 ⬇️)
The Gov has had this power for a long time. How long, you ask? The passage pasted below is from 1947. #ncpol
