Robocalls were made during the 2008 North Carolina Democratic primary, targeting African-American voters in the days leading up to the primary in late April 2008,[35] which essentially told registered voters that they were not registered.[36] According to NPR[37] and Facing South,[38] these calls were made by the organization "Women's Voices Women Vote".[39] Voters and watchdog groups complained that it was a turnout-suppression effort, and the state Attorney General Roy Cooper ordered them to stop making the calls.[39] The group stopped the calls and no further legal action was taken.
