AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Voting Rules: North Carolina’s early vote has topped 1.1 million, but new absentee-ballot requirements are drawing scrutiny. A federal judge let the rules stand; Wake County reported a 3.5% rejection rate, with more than half of rejected ballots flagged for an unsealed inner envelope. On the Ballot: Voters will decide constitutional amendments on voter ID, income-tax limits and state authority over property taxes. Outer Banks: Gov. Josh Stein declared an emergency in Dare and Hyde counties after storms damaged N.C. 12, cutting road access and prompting a request for federal repair aid; emergency ferries are operating with limited capacity. Local Transparency: A letter about data-center proposals says Halifax County officials signed confidentiality terms requiring company approval to release some records, raising questions about public access and oversight.
