Court Rules North Carolina Can Continue Counting Absentee Ballots

The transcript discusses the extension of the absentee ballot counting period in North Carolina, allowing ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted until November 12th. A court decision ruled against Republican leaders who opposed this extension. Traditionally, North Carolina allows ballots to be counted up to three days after Election Day, but due to increased mail-in voting, the state election board extended this period to nine days. This change means additional votes could be counted in the swing state more than a week after Election Day.
