A North Carolina judge lost a state Supreme Court seat by just 734 votes in November .

The theory is now at the center of a legal challenge by an appeals court Judge Jefferson Griffin .

Griffin says he won't comment on pending litigation, which he says would be a violation of judicial conduct.

North Carolina chapter of the Election Integrity Network discussed a "suspicious voters list" of people whose ballots they could challenge.

Activist Carol Snow argued that her theory could overturn the outcome of an election.

Snow is a leader of the conservative activist group North Carolina Audit Force and lives in the state’s rural mountains.

The information did end up in the Republican National Committee’s lawsuit trying to disqualify 225,000 voters.

Griffin has described Chief Justice Paul Newby as a “good friend and mentor” The spouses of three justices, including Newby , donated over $ 12,000 to Griffin 's most recent or previous campaigns.
