NC Gets New State Board of Elections with House Election Investigation Still Pending


North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) Appointed Three Democrats and Two Republicans to comprise a New State Board of Elections.

- Stella Anderson (D)

- David Black (R)

- Jeff Carmon III (D)

- Bob Cordle (D), Chairman

- Ken Raymond (R)

In December 2018, a Panel of Three State Judges ruled to Dissolve the previous State Board of Elections.

That Decision was connected to an earlier Court Ruling that Declared the Structure of the Board Unconstitutional.

The Court had previously Delayed Dissolving the Board so it could continue Investigating alleged Election Fraud related to the 2018 Election in North Carolina’s 9th Congressional District.

Reaching a Conclusion in the State’s 9th Congressional District Election is the Top Priority of the New Board.

Four Board Votes are Required to Order a New Election and Three Votes are Required to Certify the Current Results that have Mark Harris (R) Leading Dan McCready (D) by 905 votes.

At least One Board Member must Cross Party Lines to Move forward on the Race.

The Board will also Work to Implement New Voter Identification Requirements and Evaluate Voting Equipment for Upcoming Elections.

North Carolina is currently under Divided Government, as the State has a Democratic Governor and Republicans hold Majorities in Both Houses of the State Legislature.
