State Board of Elections issued an emergency order to protect voters from disease and reduce the likelihood of long lines and crowds at voting sites during the 2020 general election.
North Carolina elections officials are looking for “democracy heroes” to work at polling places and early voting sites in 2020. These local heroes will protect democracy, learn about the elections process, serve their communities and get paid in the process.
The State Board of Elections has learned that a voter advocacy group mailed about 80,000 absentee ballot request forms to North Carolina residents with voters’ information already filled out on the forms.
