Jefferson Griffin's campaign for Supreme Court has been trying to throw out the ballots of 60,000 people who voted this year, and now the NC Democratic Party is suing to try to block his strategy. If they're successful it's likely that Justice Allison Riggs will win re-election; she led by 734 votes after a recount. Another recount is underway, but Republicans' main strategy to help Griffin is the ballot challenges, which are based on a legal theory that's already been rejected in federal court. Meanwhile another political fight is afoot in the state legislature where Republicans appear on the cusp of overriding Gov. Roy Cooper's veto of a bill stripping power away from incoming governor Josh Stein, attorney general Jeff Jackson and other Democrats. In Washington, however, there's a spirit of bipartisanship as members of Congress on both sides seem to like President Joe Biden's $100 billion plan for disaster relief. But will North Carolina get enough?
