ADVOCACY GROUPS JOIN FRAY OVER GOVERNOR VOTES (AP) — Voting-rights advocates have joined the legal wrangling over how votes are being counted in North Carolina’s close governor’s contest. Lawyers from the Southern Coalition for Social Justice asked a federal judge late Wednesday to reject a lawsuit questioning voters who used same-day registration to cast ballots. The request for a dismissal was by some of the same lawyers and advocates who successfully sued to overturn parts of a wide-ranging 2013 elections law enacted by the GOP-controlled General Assembly. Now the coalition opposes a lawsuit filed this week by the head of the alt-right Pope Civitas Institute.
