Leader Blue, Leader Reives Statement on S747: Elections Law Changes
Senate Democratic Leader Dan Blue and House Democratic Leader Robert Reives released the following joint statement regarding the Proposed Committee Substitute for Senate Bill 747:
“This legislation is yet another example of Republican leadership making it harder for North Carolinians to vote. It opens the door for voter intimidation at polling places, completely undermines same-day registration during early voting and makes it easier to toss out valid ballots. These changes do not improve the integrity of our elections -- if anything, they erode the trust of voters.”
