UNC Mobile One Card, a digital photo identification on the Chapel Hill campus of the University of North Carolina, will not be valid in North Carolina’s elections.
A temporary injunction was granted Friday afternoon by the North Carolina Court of Appeals, scoring a victory for Republicans at the state and national level against the State Board of Elections. The decision stays last week’s order by Judge Keith Gregory in Wake County Superior Court.
“Two battleground state wins for election integrity in one afternoon,” wrote Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley on social media, referring also to a win in Michigan. “This is just common sense. We refuse to give an inch when it comes to protecting Voter ID!”
The lawsuit was the seventh against the state board in 52 days when filed, four of which were in a three-week blitz by the Grand Old Party. According to an affidavit filed in the case, a 22-year-old used two free apps from Apple – Superimpose+ and Walletsmith – to forge a digital ID for UNC Chapel Hill. While it took him less than an hour, he said now knowing how would make the process much quicker.
