UPDATE: Thursday, Nov 7
The N.C. House District 32 race is one of several tight contests that played out across the state during Tuesday’s election. And although Democratic challenger Bryan Cohn ended the night with 182 more votes than incumbent Frank Sossamon, it remains unclear whether there will be call for a recount.
Local elections officials still have to review provisional ballots, which must be verified before they are counted and added to the official results.
Vance County Board of Elections Director Haley Rawles said the provisional ballot meeting will take place in Vance County Thursday, Nov. 14 at 5 p.m.
According to information released earlier Thursday by the N.C. State Board of Elections, Vance County had a total of 163 provisional ballots cast – 141 on Nov. 5 and 22 during the early voting period.
In Granville County, a total of 417 provisional ballots were cast – 380 on Nov. 5 and 37 during the early voting period.
