  “Elections have Consequences” may have relevance as most observers will experience newly elected board members at upcoming meetings.  The Corps will be watching the impact on board operations, especially, the Board of Education and the County Commissioners.

  Thank you to the LWVMC Board of Elections Team for the time and commitment in observing many regularly scheduled meetings.

  Agnes Gioconda, Kelly Hardy and Holly Powell have been attending the counting of absentee ballots.  Their observation reports are submitted to our League and also to the State League to help in verifying fair elections.

  Meetings will continue after election day.

  Working with the NAACP, the LWVMC sponsored two very successful candidate forums in October.  Six candidates for Moore County School Board met on October 13 and five candidates for Moore County Commissioner met on October 18 to answer questions submitted by League members and the live audience.

Many thanks to everyone who made the 2022 candidate forums a huge success. 

The Work of the Trusted Elections Tour Continues

  The Carter Center sponsored Trusted Election Tour was deemed a success with events held throughout the state in each voting district. Our own event held on September 27 at Sandhills Community College drew the largest attendance of any in the state. Organizers don’t plan to rest on their laurels and will continue their mission through the 2024 election. 

  Special emphasis on concerns and messaging to the public on runoffs, recounts, disruptions or any other complications with the midterm elections is their main focus from now through Election Day. Maintaining a safe and secure environment for voters and election workers before, during and after the November 8 election is the top priority. Educating the public so they have confidence in our election process and go to the polls to vote is the ultimate goal.
