What's on this agenda

Chatham County's Board of Elections took up early voting for the November election at its 19 May meeting and set a date to appoint the officials who would run it. It also adopted a resolution redrawing the West Siler City precinct lines so that the precinct includes its own polling place.

Other business was the 2027 budget update, the director's report, and a sample letter from Rowan County on extending the time allowed to research provisional ballots. The board closed the meeting to approve closed session minutes and discuss election security. The agenda is a scan, marked tentative.
