JUST IN: Columbus, Robeson and Wilson counties will begin reporting results at 8:30pm tonight. As of now, all other NC counties are set to begin reporting at 7:30pm. #ncpol #Election2022 @WRAL
So what does this mean and why did this happen? There was either a technical or logistical issue at one precinct in each of these three counties that impacted voting access. As a result, state elections officials extended voting.
Biggest impact will likely be that it may take a little longer to know who won #NC01. Wilson Co. went for Biden by 3 points in 2020. The race between Democrat Don Davis and Republican Sandy Smith is considered the second-most competitive congressional race in the state. #ncpol
Also, these are just three sites out of 2,655 precincts - a rate of one-tenth of one percent having extended voting as a result of issues. This is very much par for the course and is not at all uncommon.
