Congrats to Justice Allison Riggs on Winning NC Supreme Court Election!

NC State AFL-CIO congratulates Justice Allison Riggs on winning the election to maintain her seat on the North Carolina Supreme Court. After two thorough statewide recounts of all ballots, Justice Riggs won by 734 votes out of over 5.5 million cast. Instead of gracefully conceding, her opponent, Jefferson Griffin, is attempting to throw out tens of thousands of votes—many of which were cast by members of our military—in an attempt to undermine our democratic process.
