To Midterm Voters Everywhere:

In just one sample ballot, (e.g., I picked Buncombe County, North Carolina because it’s had a lot of news about corruption lately),

there are two Republican candidates (and one Democrat) for each of two Justice seats. It looks like this could be a ploy to split the Republican straight ticket vote. After briefly researching, one of the candidates, (1), had JUST switched from the Democrat Party, and the other, (2), doesn’t state anything about upholding the Constitution.

(1) NC SUPREME COURT JUSTICE

YES Barbara Jackson

NO Christopher (Chris) Anglin (he was a registered Democrat until just before submitting his candidacy

(2) NC COURT OF APPEALS

YES Jefferson G Griffin

NO Sandra Alice Ray

Griffin’s basis for decisions is on the Constitution

So look up your sample ballots in your states and see if there is any other silliness going on. Research to assure you’re not taken by surprise at the polls. Have any anons found similar situations on other ballots?
