NC GOP candidate responds to criticism of inflammatory email
SUMMARY: Republican nominee for North Carolina State Superintendent Michelle Mara addressed controversy surrounding a September Facebook post referencing a potential “revolution” if Republicans lose the election. She clarified that her words were twisted and emphasized she wasn’t advocating for violence. Mara described the election as “American Revolution 2.0,” stating, “we’re either willing to fight now or we’ll be forced to fight on November 6.” Criticism arose from her Democratic opponent, M. Green, who argued that children deserve leaders who foster unity, not incite violence. Mara’s campaign priorities include transforming the education system and reducing violence in schools.
The Republican nominee for North Carolina Superintendent of Public Instruction denies calling for violence if she loses the election.

Embattled North Carolina state board hit with lawsuit | North Carolina
SUMMARY: Litigation has been initiated against the North Carolina State Board of Elections by the North Carolina Republican Party, Jason Simmons, and Jefferson Griffin, concerning delays in providing election information for the state Supreme Court race. Simmons claims the board failed to receive canvass totals from all counties by the legally mandated deadline. As of now, Democrat Allison Riggs has taken a lead over Griffin, reversing a significant deficit from Election Night, with the recount request deadline approaching. The issue has raised concerns about the integrity and timeliness of the electoral process in the state.

SUMMARY: Asheville officials announced that the city residents are no longer under a boil water notice following extensive repairs after Hurricane Helene caused significant damage to a bypass line at the North Fork Reservoir, which supplies 80% of the city’s water. The flushing process initiated on October 30 confirmed that treated water has replaced raw water in the system. Although water filtration capacity has improved, the city advises residents to temporarily avoid large-volume water activities due to high demand. The Asheville Water Resources Department expressed gratitude for residents’ patience during this challenging period.
