SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A North Carolina advocacy group on Tuesday (Nov 8) filed a lawsuit asking that polls in Durham County be kept open until 9pm after problems with electronic voting rolls there earlier in the day, according to a court filing provided by the group.
Democracy North Carolina filed the case in a state court, shortly before the state board of elections is set to decide whether voting in Durham County should be extended.
