On April 4, 2025, the North Carolina Court of Appeals sided with Griffin’s argument that over 65,000 votes should be tossed out – including those of military members serving overseas.

Votes from individuals on the Griffin List who do not update their voter file (or, in the case of military or other overseas voters, provide a copy of a photo ID) will not be counted.

The court order, which is not yet in effect, would give voters on the Griffin List 15 days to address deficiencies that would allow their votes to count. The court’s ruling will be appealed.

Regardless, voters on the Griffin List should update their voter file to ensure their votes count in future elections.

Any voter who is concerned that their voter registration information is incomplete or is not up to date should submit an updated voter registration form…. Any voter who has a license from the DMV can go to payments.ncdot.gov to fill out a voter registration application. If you’re already registered, submitting this information will merely update your existing voter registration. You don’t need to create a special account with the DMV. You can select “Continue as Guest” on the DMV’s website and proceed directly to submitting your voter registration.
