    STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE SUPERIOR COURT DIVISION COUNTY OF WAKE FILE NO.: 19-CVS-0025 MARK E. HARRIS, ) Petitioner ) ) v. ) ) THE NORTH CAROLINA ) PETITIONER MARK E. HARRIS' BIPARTISAN STATE BOARD OF ) MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT ELECTIONS AND ETHICS ) OF A WRIT OF MANDAMUS ENFORCEMENT a/k/a THE ) NORTH CAROLINA STATE ) BOARD OF ELECTIONS AND ) ETHICS ENFORCEMENT, ) Respondent ) In response to this Court's invitation for briefing, Dr. Mark E. Harris ("Dr. Harris") submits this Memorandum of Law in Support of his Petition for a Writ of Mandamus. Dr. Harris asks this Court to command the Executive Director of the North Carolina Bipartisan State Board of Elections and Ethics Enforcement (the "Bipartisan Board") to issue a Certificate of Election immediately. In the alternative, Dr. Harris asks this Court to command the North Carolina State Board of Elections (the "State Board") to issue a Certificate of Election as soon as it is able. In addition, Dr. Harris asks this Court to command the staff of the Bipartisan Board to release any investigation materials or report into election irregularities in North Carolina's Ninth Congressional District (the "Ninth District"), so as to remove the cloud that the Board has placed over Dr. Harris' election. INTRODUCTION On December 28, 2018, the Bipartisan Board dissolved. The General Assembly has created no immediately active successor. The Bipartisan Board's dissolution leaves the State without any body to oversee its election laws. The gap created by the Bipartisan Board's dissolution has thrown the 2018 general election cycle—a cycle that should have ended no later than December 28, 2018—into chaos.
