Brunswick County Board of Elections hosts Election Expo Open House

BRUNSWICK COUNTY, N.C. (WECT) - The Brunswick County Board of Elections held its Election Expo Open House on Thursday, May 18, and invited the public to attend.

Attendants had the opportunity to meet their local board of elections staff and participate in a mock election to gain hands-on experience with the voting process and equipment.

Elections Director Sarah Levere was also there to provide information and answer questions.

“Maybe a first-time voter has been a little intimidated to walk into a polling place not knowing what to do, maybe they just aren’t comfortable and coming to something like this where we have it all out, but it’s not real. You can kind of touch it and play with it and ask the questions,” Levere said.

Two sessions were held at the Commissioners Chambers in the David Sandifer Administration Building at 30 Government Center Drive NE in Bolivia: one from 1 to 3 p.m. and another from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
