Changes Coming Probably to Watauga Voting Plans Because of Helene

 

The State Board of Elections (SBOE) voted unanimously yesterday to allow the 13 counties most impacted by Hurricane Helene to change their early voting plans -- both locations and hours of operation -- because of the devastation. Some polling locations in some counties are so damaged as to be unusable.

The SBOE also empowered local boards to change e-day locations and hours.

Dunno yet what this means for Watauga, as the Watauga BOE is set to meet tonight and make those decisions.

The 13 counties:

Ashe
Avery
Buncombe
Haywood
Henderson
Madison
McDowell
Mitchell
Polk
Rutherford
Transylvania
Watauga
Yancey
