RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A panel from North Carolina's intermediate-level appeals court will hear arguments next week about a still-unsettled November election for a seat on the state's Supreme Court.

The March 21 hearing by three judges on the Court of Appeals was announced Friday, the same day the court rejected a request by incumbent Supreme Court Associate Justice Allison Riggs to have the entire Court of Appeals consider the matter now instead.

After recounts and election protests, the registered Democrat Riggs leads Republican challenger Jefferson Griffin by 734 votes out of more than 5.5 million ballots cast in their race for an eight-year term on the highest court in the ninth-largest state.

While The Associated Press declared over 4,400 winners in the 2024 general election, the North Carolina Supreme Court election is the only race nationally that is still undecided.

1. Griffin is stalling until that orange gibbon declares martial law.

Then, he will be given the position.
