BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Republican Gov. Doug Burgum\u2019s big spending appears to be paying off as two political newcomers he backed are well ahead of one of the state\u2019s most powerful GOP lawmakers. House Appropriations Chairman Jeff Delzer trailed David Andahl and Dave Nehring as the all-mail vote was counted. Delzer\u2019s only hope lay with ballots that can still flow in through next Monday. Burgum\u2019s choice for treasurer, GOP Rep. Thomas Beadle, was also leading his race. State Superintendent of Public Instruction Kirsten Baesler advanced to the general election in November.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D (AP) \u2014 A federal judge in North Dakota has approved a plan for handling mail-in ballots with questionable voter signatures. Tuesday\u2019s primary is being conducted exclusively by mail due to concerns over the coronavirus outbreak. The plan approved by Chief Judge Peter Welte is the result of a lawsuit that challenged a state law requiring a match between a signature on an absentee ballot and the voter\u2019s signature on his or her ballot application. Welte approved a plan that requires county auditors to \u201ctake reasonable steps as soon as practicable\u201d to inform voters with signature mismatches. Steps include an attempt to reach them by phone, and if that fails contacting them by mail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
