New Hanover Board of Elections criticized over early voting location
NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WWAY) — This year’s municipal election is causing some concern in New Hanover County after the county board of elections announced it will only open one early voting location.
Last week, the New Hanover County Board of Elections announced the Northeast Library off Eastwood Rd. will be the only early location for this year’s election.
County Commissioner LeAnn Pierce took to social media to criticize the decision, saying that after a budget increase and a new $5.6 million dollar building, there should be more than one location.
Pierce also claims any cost to open another location would be reimbursed by the municipality hosting it.
