After the November 3 general election, the State Board of Elections will randomly select precincts, early voting sites and by-mail ballots to be counted by hand in each county.
As with any election, county boards of elections across North Carolina have begun the 10-day post-election process of counting the remaining ballots and conducting audits to verify the results.
The North Carolina State Board of Elections voted Tuesday to extend voting at four precincts after each polling site opened late. North Carolina has 2,660 Election Day polling places.
