    RALEIGH, N.C. - The State Board of Elections Office is aware of a report from the Civitas Institute regarding statements made by a Board of Elections employee at a public voter outreach session last week in Pasquotank County.

    "We take seriously every allegation of voter misconduct," said Kim Westbrook Strach, executive director of the State Board of Elections.

    "Providing accurate information about elections to the public is at the heart of what we do," Strach said. "We are working diligently to determine what happened, why it happened and to ensure it doesn't happen again."
