Push for public access to voting records tied to 2020 election deniers 
Supporters of the Republican-backed bill in committee at the state legislature this week argue it would improve transparency of elections administration. The measure follows model legislation provided by a group tied to Cleta Mitchell, a Trump ally and participant in the former president's bid to overturn the 2020 results in Georgia. 
That model legislation is posted on the North Carolina Election Integrity Team's web site. NCEIT is a chapter of Cleta Mitchell's Election Integrity Network. 
"It opens up the opportunity to assure the public that the machines are not corrupted, or the machines are not flipping votes," Jim Womack, a former Lee County commissioner and president of NCEIT, said of the legislative effort to make CVRs available by public records request. 
Current state law states "no person other than elections officials performing their duties may have access to voted ballots or paper or electronic records of individual voted ballots except by court order or order of the appropriate board of elections as part of the resolution of an election protest or investigation of an alleged election irregularity or violation."
