No same-day registration in NC election, Supreme Court rules

RALEIGH, N.C. – Same-day registration won't be allowed during early voting in North Carolina and Election Day ballots cast in the wrong precinct won't be counted this fall after the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday blocked a ruling that had set aside parts of a 2013 election law.

A majority on the nation's highest court agreed to halt the ruling of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Two justices dissented.

The decision means the full law will remain enforced while the state and civil rights groups that challenged the law prepare for trial next summer. The full law was enforced during the May primary as well.

Boohoo poor Democrats. Less fraud in the NC elections anyway.

I can't imagine the confusing nightmare that would cause.

Here's a tip, folks. There are two whole years between elections. There are buses that go near your houses.

You probably (well, most of you) have legs and feet to walk with. Remember, 2 years.

There are also cars that can take you from your house to the Board of Elections. They are called Taxis.

Telephones have been invented to call taxis.

Some of you even own your own cars.

Now, imagine how all these puzzle pieces could fit together.

Sometime in the next 2 years...
