NC State Auditor Candidate Prepared to Call for Statewide Recount | Eastern North Carolina Now

    Press Release:

NCGOP has growing concern over voting irregularities, fraud

    "We already know about potentially fraudulent ballots in Bladen County, along with irregularities in a number of other counties across the state. With multiple areas of concern in this election, it is important for us to conduct a thorough audit to make sure the results match the will of the voters who cast their ballots legally. After county canvasses are completed, if the results reflect the current election status, I will absolutely call for a recount so we can reinstate confidence in our system. I believe the citizens of North Carolina would expect nothing less from their State Auditor than to take action to ensure absolute accuracy, whether it be in election results or an audit of an entity receiving taxpayer money." - Chuck Stuber, Candidate for NC State Auditor

    "The NCGOP has serious concerns about voter fraud and the possible disenfranchisement of legal voters through the counting of votes cast with same day registration, without the required address verification process being complete. It is becoming more and more apparent that because of the close margin of multiple races in North Carolina, a statewide recount will be necessary so people can have confidence in the system, process and results." - Robin Hayes, NCGOP Chairman

    Background

    State Auditor candidates Chuck Stuber and Beth Wood are currently separated by 2,791 votes, or .06% of the total votes cast in that race.
