Guilford County Board of Elections prepares to start mailing out absentee ballots after 2-week delay
GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — After a nearly two-week-long delay, board of elections officers throughout North Carolina are now preparing to mail out the first wave of absentee ballots to voters.
The delay came after third-party presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped out of the presidential race, and a court decided the ballots needed to be reprinted.
So far, the Guilford County Board of Elections has put together around 7,000 envelopes with absentee ballots, and by Friday, Sept. 20, they expect to have a total of 9,000 to mail out to voters.
“We’re playing catch up … We’ve worked hard on that, and we’re in a good place,” Guilford County Board of Elections Director Charlie Collicutt said.
