NC elections board to review all administrative rules for absentee ballots
A divided NC Board of Elections voted along party lines Wednesday to take a broad look at administrative rules for absentee ballots.
The result could be stricter rules on what kinds of errors voters will be required to correct in order for their votes to count.
The board won’t make any changes to rules or practices before the March 3 primary.
The decision to reconsider how to address mail-in ballot mistakes stems from the settlement of a federal lawsuit brought by the NCGOP, the Republican National Committee and a voter over how absentee ballots county elections officials should handle ballots that are not sealed in the proper envelope.
