Jefferson Griffin , a Republican appellate judge, is seeking a spot on North Carolina's highest court.
He is facing mounting criticism including from some Republicans as he seeks to invalidate over 60,000 votes cast in last November ’s election.
The photographs are from when Griffin was a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill from 1999-2003 .
Griffin said he regretted donning the Confederate uniform, which was customary during the fraternity's annual “Old South” ball.
Kappa Alpha chapters, particularly in the South , clung to their traditions, including the wearing of blackface.
The national headquarters finally forbade confederate uniforms in 2010 after a wave of public blowback after Kappa Alpha members at the University of Alabama wore them during a parade that paused in front of the home of a black sorority.
