    Bladen County should be interesting for the Board because it is the only county where the Republican share of the vote increased.

    The Republican winner, Mark Harris, had a 905 vote lead over the Democratic challenger out of a total of ~279,000 votes cast. Harris won Bladen County by roughly 1550 votes.

    It is unclear whether any irregularities would be enough to alter the results from this election.

    The story of this situation is wild with stories of irregularities going back to the Republican primary when this guy surprisingly won.

    Here is some further discussion of the story:

    Also, remember that it is the Republican being charged with voter irregularities/fraud. I want you to imagine how much Trump would be discussing this situation if the problems were showing up on the democratic side.

    Still no outrage regarding the mounting evidence of Republican led voter fraud?

    Shocking!

    Why? The democrats have so blatantly cheated in California, Florida, Georgia, and a few others that one county in NC is not even worth mentioning.

    The fact that you focus on such a trivial event while ignoring the gross fraud all over the country by democrats completely destroys your credibility (or what little you had).

    Don't get twisted when people outside the NDP bubble don't respond to every dog whistle Progressives are required to bark at.

    It’s just too hypocritical

    The Left leaning stuff is buried and ignored

    So most people simply see you as hyper partisan pandering

    That's because the left leaning **** is almost never voter fraud.

    Or did you still want to talk about trump losing the popular vote because of three million illegal votes that were never found?

    You lose the ability to hear in the upper registers as you age.

    That's why trump talks and tweets in the lower range.

    After all the fake hysterics over "Voter Fraud!" by some hyper-partisan, conspiracy-obsessed pantywaists (Who can forget Lyin' Don's 3-5 million invisible people all voting against him and costing him the popular vote?) we may actually have a real case of voter fraud perverting an election, as confirmed by a bipartisan vote of the State Board of Elections, not just ideological media entertainers crapping on their dupes.

    No one should pre-judge whether this is a case of voter fraud. Obviously, it merits a thorogh investigation.

    To summarize, the bipartisan North Carolina Board of Elections said it will hold a public hearing by Dec. 21 "to assure that the election is determined without taint of fraud or corruption and without irregularities that may have changed the result." That followed a unanimous vote earlier this week to postpone election certification results.

    More than 40% of the absentee ballots requested by African Americans and more than 60% of those requested by American Indians did not make it back to elections officials. For white voters, that figure was just 17%.

    This is not just another case of fake, hyper-partisan, evidence free, claims of voter fraud like Lyin' Don pulling 3-5 million invisible illegal voters out of his butt.

    This one is serious.

    The discussion is specifically focused on voter fraud and trump's allegation that he lost the popular vote because of illegal voting.

    That he would make that allegation while still winning the presidency is a demonstration of his thin-skinned ego.

    And now, 538 has moved this election all the way from "called R" to "toss up" because the allegations of voter fraud are so credible that a re-vote is very likely.

    At least North Carolina is willing to actually recognize their voter fraud. That's more than can be said about Broward county in Florida or California. Charge them with felonies and lock em up.

    'Possible irregularities' in absentee ballots"

    Ever since Bush cheated in Florida I assume that all American elections are bogus. 'Democracy' in the U.S. is only a pipe dream.

    This is the part that makes it likely to be voter fraud IMO.

    What are the odds of someone pulling off a stunt like that when EVERYWHERE ELSE it was going in the other direction?

    His "operative" was "working" in that county and there are strange accounts of absentee ballots being mishandled.

    To NOT investigate this would be a travesty of voting rights.

    LOL

    What a load. Mother Jones? Why should anyone take the word of that click bait, dog whistle laugh factory? As if the Progs at MJ interviewed all Republicans.

    If there was fraud, let the system do it's thing. One District out of 13.

    Next....
