Absolutely *outstanding* news.

The disgusting attempt to disenfranchise North Carolinians has honestly not gotten the attention it deserves, in the midst of all the other destruction-of-democracy news, but the fact that this might be one story that ends well is huge.

Upon remand, the Board is instructed to immediately direct the county boards in all one hundred counties to expeditiously identify the challenged β€œIncomplete Voter Registration” voters and notify said voters of their registration defects, to allow said voters fifteen (15) business days from the mailing of the notice to cure the defect, and upon verification to include in the count of this challenged election the votes of those voters who timely cure their registration defects and to omit from the final count the votes of those voters who fail to timely cure their registration defects

NC Court of Appeals rules 2-1 for Judge Jefferson Griffin. The court didn't throw out 65,000 ballots, but it's requiring all of those voters to jump through more hoops to have their vote counted. NONE of these voters broke the rules. appellate.nccourts.org/opinions/?c=... #ncpol

With everything that’s happening, things feel dark. But not even 48 hours ago, Democrats had a *massive* victory in what’s likely to be the most important election of 2025. I talked with @alexaronson.bsky.social and @thelisagraves.bsky.social about the WI election results & why they’re such a BFD.

As we celebrate today’s win, we must also fight to unrig the system so that state courts reliably serve the people without the interference of billionaires, and this certainly won’t be solved in one election. 3/3

This race’s $100 million price tag reminds us of a sobering truth: state judiciaries are just as much victims of our failing democracy as they are its potential champions. 2/3

Judge Susan Crawford’s victory is a win for democracy in Wisconsin & a rejection of the divisive, destructive agenda of the Trump Administration. Wisconsinites made it clear that their votes are not for sale, no matter how many million-dollar checks Elon Musk hands out: @mollycoleman.bsky.social 1/3

3/3: As billionaires pour their fortunes into influencing the outcome to their gain, it is clear β€œstate judiciaries are just as much victims of our failing democracy as they are its potential champions.”

The Wisconsin Supreme Court Election Will Tip the State’s Balance of Power Liberals finally won a majority on the court two years ago. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are trying to take that control right back.

1/3: The stakes could not be higher in Wisconsin's Supreme Court race β€œwhich will determine whose rights, whose votes, and whose freedom matters in the state of Wisconsin.”

The Wisconsin Supreme Court finally works for workers. Billionaires want to change that β€’ Wisconsin Examiner Wisconsin voters elected a pro-worker Supreme Court majority; Elon Musk is spending big to return a pro-corporate majority to power.

Wisconsin justices have made progress in protecting democracy, striking down gerrymandered election districts and allowing the use of ballot drop boxes. As @billycorriher.bsky.social writes, all that is up for grabs if billionaires like Elon Musk get his way: wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/03/25/t...

Graphic listing 8 ways the Supreme Court Helped Trump Win: (1) Shielded Trump from prosecution; (2) Blocked states from removing Trump from the ballet; (3) Allowed billionaires and oligarchs to buy the presidency; (4) Gutted voting rights act and permitted voter suppression, (5) greenlit political and racial gerrymandering; (6) blocked or limited Biden's signature policy accomplishments; (7) Attached workers' ability to form strong unions; (8) limited American's imagination as to what kind of world is possible.

Elon Musk wasn’t the only one helping Trump get elected. Check out our new report on how #SCOTUS helped re-elect Trump, gave him unprecedented powerβ€”and what we can do about it.

If it were a movie, people would roll their eyes at how overdone it was. The man who ascended to the presidency by firing people on TV is about to have the first case of his second term argued at the Supreme Court. The issue? Whether he has the 'unrestricted power' to fire his critics. (1/3)

Yes, the #SCOTUS may step in to stop Trump’s illegal EO on birthright citizenship and other egregious violations. If this happens, we cannot forget the role the Court played in creating this crisis.

As a result of the Supreme Court’s systematic interference, Trump was able not only to regain power but has been emboldened to engage in daily illegal and unconstitutional acts in a way that is entirely unprecedented in American history.

β€œThe Supreme Court Helped Trump Win,” gives a blow-by-blow on how SCOTUS helped Trump secure the presidency by overlooking the Constitution, dismantling Democrats' systems, and granting unprecedented power to the President.
