One expert says North Carolina should no longer be called a democracy
Source: AOL.com
North Carolina is part of the U.S. — but one political science expert says it should no longer be considered a democracy.
Professor Andrew Reynolds is a researcher for the Electoral Integrity Project.
Each year, the EIP looks at global elections and measures their fairness. This year, it also studied elections in each U.S. state, looking at things like voter registration, electoral laws and post-election response.
North Carolina was one of the lower ranked states, earning only 58 out of 100 for electoral integrity.
In an op-ed written for The News & Observer, Reynolds said that score puts the Tar Heel State in line with pseudo-democratic countries like Cuba, Sierra Leone and Indonesia.
