State Board of Elections Executive Director Kim Westbrook Strach issued the following statement on the passage of House Bill 2:
Every NC voter should be confident their voice will be heard in all primary contests. In each election, voters should mark their preference in all contests—including candidates for U.S. House appearing on ballots in March. Vote the whole ballot and let us worry about what will count.
The North Carolina State Board of Elections is the state agency charged with overall responsibility for administration of the elections process and campaign finance disclosure in North Carolina.
