G. K. Butterfield: “We need to be the convinced that this new Center has a robust system to investigate and stop bad actors.”

I represent one of thirteen districts in North Carolina. And, as all of you certainly know, the Rucho case originated in my State, as well as the Moore v. Harper case.

Now the Supreme Court is going to have to decide whether or not State courts have any authority whatsoever over election laws within the State.

Unfortunately, the High Court decided that political gerrymandering is not protected by the Federal Constitution.

We took the case into Federal court, and the lower Federal courts ruled in our favor and ruled that the State legislature engaged in partisan gerrymandering and that it was a violation of the Federal Constitution.
