The BOE is splitting the South Boone precinct due to population growth.

It's Talk o' Tuesday!

Alamance County has a new polling place! Starting with the upcoming Municipal Elections, our South Boone precinct will be split into two parts. Some voters who previously voted at Smith Elementary School will now vote at St. Mark's Community Church!

To find out if you live in the new precinct if you are a registered voter, visit the voter search tool at https://vt.ncsbe.gov/RegLkup/ and search yourself. If you are not a registered voter or cannot find yourself, visit the Alamance County GIS interactive map and adjust the layers to voting precincts and voting locations to determine which precinct you fall in visually: https://apps.alamance-nc.com/CountyGISMap/default.aspx.

Today we mourn yesterday's passing of Dr. Dorothy Yarborough, our Board of Elections Chair, after an extended health struggle.

It was an honor for all of us here at the Board of Elections office to work with Dr. Yarborough. She had a passion for facilitating fair elections and making sure as many eligible voters as possible were able to vote that mirrored and complimented her passion for bettering her community.

Her voice of reason and upbeat personality will be greatly missed.

Maintaining Order at the Polls: here is guidance from the NC State Board of Elections.
Numbered Memo 2022-12: Maintaining Order at the Polls, October 7, 2022

“Any person serving a felony sentence outside of prison or jail (serving probation, post-release supervision, or parole) is eligible to register to vote and vote. If a person is in jail awaiting trial for a felony but has not yet been convicted, they retain their voting rights. In North Carolina, a person never loses their voting rights for a misdemeanor conviction.”

Felons Who Are Not in Jail or Prison May Register to Vote Starting July 27 Starting July 27, 2022, an individual serving a felony sentence who is not in jail or prison may register to vote and vote. An individual must also have resided in North Carolina for at least 30 days prior to the election, be a U.S. citizen, and be at least 18 years old by the next general election.

This year Early Voting starts Oct 20th. In Alamance, we have Early Voting every day from Monday, October 24th through Saturday, November 5th. And this year we have two more Early Voting sites than in the 2018 mid-terms, including a new site in Elon.

Fact: If you move within a county and don’t update your voter registration by Election Day, you may still vote at your new polling location, as long as you were already registered in that county.
