North Carolina Ballot Includes Thurmond Wright Ticket
The States Righters sought recognition for a new party by submitting 18 681 petition names to the elections board. After a court review, 12 584 names were verified as registered voters.

Chief Justice Stacy dissented, warning the decision removes safeguards.
