2011 Municipal Elections

Did I mention that Municipal Elections in North Carolina will be held November 8, 2011?

In Pamlico County, all of our municipalities hold non-partisan elections.

If you have an interest in public policy issues and think you can make a positive contribution to town government, you should think seriously about running for office. Not because government is easy, but because it is hard. In a democracy, we depend on people stepping forward and taking responsibility for public policy.

If you want to be on the ballot, though, you have to file as a candidate.

Candidate filing begins at the Board of Elections office at the Bayboro courthouse, at noon on July 1. The filing period ends at noon on July 15.

Think about it.
