🚨🚨🚨ATTENTION NORTH CAROLINA check and see if your mail in ballot was counted 🚨In North Carolina, the recent disqualification and potential rejection of mail-in ballots are tied to a controversial new mail-in voting rule mandated by the Republican-led State Board of Elections. Under this rule, local county election officials are required to discard mail-in ballots if the inner envelope is unsealed, even if the outer container envelope is securely sealed. 🚨The technicality stems from changes made to comply with voter ID laws passed by the Republican-controlled state legislature. 🚨The Double-Envelope Rule and Its Impact •The Rule: Voters must place their ballot inside an inner envelope, seal it, and then place that envelope inside a larger outer container envelope alongside a copy of their photo ID or an ID exception form. Both envelopes must be sealed for the ballot to count. 🚨•The Disqualifications: County election officials acknowledge this new guidance is a leading cause of "spoiled" ballots. For example, in Mecklenburg County alone, unsealed inner envelopes initially disqualified about 300 ballots. [1, 2] 🚨•The Statewide Outlook: State voting rights groups estimate that the new rule could impact roughly 3% of mail-in ballots. This could lead to approximately 4,000 ballots being thrown out across the state.
