Republican Group Sues N.C. Election Board
2004-10-23
A national Republican group sued the Democratic controlled State Board of Elections today seeking to get its television ads on the air before Election Day.
As the election battles heat up
The Republican Governors Association alleges the elections board is treating it differently from a similar Democratic group that was allowed to run advertisements for the governor's race. R-G-A leaders say they can't get a fair shake because all three Democrats on the five-member board have donated to Democratic Governor Mike Easley's campaign. The three Democrats voted last month to fine the R-G-A nearly 200 thousand dollars for airing an advertisement supporting Republican gubernatorial candidate Patrick Ballantine.

#1  There was a lot of talk on the Charlotte radio yesterday about this and also something about early voting on Sunday in Mecklinburg county at churches. I gathered the democrat elections board in Meck said Sunday voting was okay to get the black vote. The booths are to be set up at black churches in the area.

As for the item cited by the article I guess there is a hearing set for Monday.

I was only listening on my way home so only heard a small bit. Anyone else have any more info?
