Democrats propose constitutional amendment to protect early voting in North Carolina
Democratic state lawmakers in North Carolina proposed a constitutional amendment to ensure at least 14 days of in-person early voting for even-numbered year elections, following Republican legislation aiming to reduce the current 17-day period to 10 days. The amendment requires supermajority support in both legislative chambers to proceed, but Republicans hold the necessary majority, making passage unlikely.
