The RNC and the North Carolina State Board of Elections have agreed to settle a lawsuit over removing noncitizens from voter rolls. The agreement requires election officials to use jury questionnaire responses to identify noncitizens and remove them from the rolls if warranted. The settlement sets a timeline for list maintenance and directs election officials to provide information to the State Bureau of Investigation if records show a voter cast a ballot before becoming a US citizen. The agreement awaits judge approval. The lawsuit was filed by the RNC and the NC GOP ahead of the 2024 elections, accusing the board of failing to comply with a new law directing the use of jury questionnaire responses for list maintenance. The board had argued it already complied with the policy.
