The Pamlico County Board of Elections went to Raleigh yesterday to seek State Board of Elections approval for a plan for One-Stop voting adopted by a majority of board members. Since the plan was not adopted unanimously, it required a hearing before the State Board. A total of nine counties whose plans were not adopted unanimously appeared before the board.
After hearing from of both majority and minority members, the State Board of Elections approved the Pamlico County plan supported by the majority. Therefore we will have voting on two Sunday afternoons during One-stop.
Both sides presented their positions on a well-prepared, rational and amicable basis. There was no hint of acrimony.
The same could not be said of some of the other counties. I came away from the hearing with a feeling of pride for the way our county conducts it business.
