A North Carolina photo voter identification law enacted nearly five years ago but got stuck in litigation is finally being implemented with this fall's municipal elections that wrap up next week.
Some voter education and civil rights advocates, however, remain concerned the new process is impeding voting. Close to 99,000 votes cast by mail or in person for primary or general elections on Sept. 12 and Oct. 10 were counted, while only 40 ballots weren’t due to a voter failing to meet the ID law’s requirements, according to State Board of Elections data. Several hundred thousand more ballots are being cast in general elections for about 465 cities, towns and villages that conclude Tuesday. Historically, turnout has been about 15% for these elections.
The State Board of Elections received money in the state budget this fall to fund broad statewide education efforts next year, such as television ads and mailers. Bill MacMillan, 67, of Cary, who voted this fall, said not everyone is like him and has multiple qualifying IDs.
