FLIP NC is fighting to take back our state courts!

Rally for Riggs!

Incredible turnout in Raleigh today for Justice Allison Riggs, who is fighting to protect every last vote against Jefferson Griffin’s continued attempts to overturn the election and four Republican justices’ efforts to give him an assist.

Here’s an update on where things stand following the NC Supreme Court’s ruling on Friday.

Introducing: The NC Fair Maps ALliance

The NC Fair Maps Alliance was co-founded by the FLIP NC team in partnership with the Can’t Win Victory Fund and NoC co-founder Becca Zerkin in early 2025 to serve as a collaborative hub for grassroots organizations and activists working to end gerrymandering and protect voting rights in North Carolina.

The Alliance’s first event, Courting Justice, was geared towards college students and featured a panel discussion with NC Supreme Court Justices Anita Earls and Allison Riggs and Professor Sam Wang from the Princeton Gerrymandering Project. It was great to see young folks engaging on the topic of gerrymandering and asking great questions. We had so much fun we just might have to take this show on the road!

Keep an eye out for future events and ways to get involved with the Alliance. And in the meantime, learn more about what we’re fighting for – and why.

The far right has taken over our state courts, and we’re fighting back!

Following the 2022 elections, extremist Republicans took over our state courts. Led by Republican Paul Newby, the new right-wing majority has wielded its power in unprecedented ways, trampling norms and conventions, overturning the prior court’s rulings, and aiding right-wing lawmakers’ unconstitutional power grabs for partisan gain. Read more about the corrupt GOP court.

In 2026, we must re-elect Justice Anita Earls to the N.C. Supreme Court and defend three seats on the N.C. Court of Appeals held by Democrats Judge John Arrowood, Judge Allegra Collins, and Judge Toby Hampson. We hope you will join us!

FLIP NC is an all-volunteer, grassroots organization working to elect progressives in North Carolina.
