I voted in NC elections until I was 25, even though I attended law school out of state. Typically, you do not establish residency in the state of your undergrad (or even grad) college , although it is theoretically possible if you intend to live in that state going forward (which would be unusual with a basketball player).

He's a US citizen and wants to vote with ease where he lives I suspect.
Not sure what NC voting laws are, but typically you don’t have the right to vote where it is easiest. You have the right to vote where you are a permanent resident.
Not saying VAL is committing voter fraud. A college student could theoretically establish permanent residency in their college hometown. Just that it would be unusual.
Here is what vote.gov says about it. They seem to suggest that it is not that difficult to vote in your college state, depending when you move and depending on the laws of the state.

Find out where and how to register and vote in national, state, and local elections as a college student.
And digging a little further, the NC site says you can vote in NC if you live there for 30 days prior to election and you don’t intend to return to your home state.

The thing that is so odd to me is allowing a challenge after the fact to just some of the ballots. Either you challenge all similarly situated ballots or none. It is not fair to challenge ballots in just democratic counties. That is the issue that has stuck out to me from the beginning.

Agree completely. But this is what you get with Republican judges without any morals or any respect for judicial ethics. It's a fundamental problem with our entire political system. The Republicans are absolulely amoral and the Democrats believe that some sort of baseline moral commitment to truth, justice, and fair dealing is a crtical to governmental behavoir and ethics.
ETA: But I must admit, I really can't say how I would act if Russia/FSB had the same sort of Kompromat on me as they obviously have on Trump in particular and who knows how many other Republicans in general. Whatever the FSB has on Lindsay Graham, I hope it never becomes public.

Also, if the NC Supreme Court votes are contested, why aren’t ALL votes for all elections contested?

Mike Fox's first rule as the head baseball coach at UNC....you will absolutely NOT join a fraternity or participate in any fraternity related activities.
