It's Not Too Early to Start Getting Giddy

Ashe County appears to have gone strongly for Roger Sharpe, for Cullie Tarleton, and for Steve Goss. We'll have actual numbers later.

In Watauga, with four small precincts yet to report, Democrats are leading across the board, except for Sheriff candidate L.D. Hagaman, who is trailing Shook by less than 150 votes. Please note: there'll be literally hundreds of provisional ballots to be argued over and potentially counted.
