NC Election Results To Be Delayed After Extension At 4 Poll Sites

NORTH CAROLINA — Poll hours were extended in North Carolina Tuesday after delays were reported at several polling sites, the North Carolina State Board of Elections said.

The extension means that results, which are reported once all of the state's 2,660 Election Day poll sties close, will now be released at 8:15 p.m.

"With 2,660 polling sites, it is not unusual for minor issues to occur at polling sites that result in a brief disruption of voting," NCSBE said in a statement. "The State Board routinely meets to discuss the extension of hours when the need arises."
