RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- North Carolina election officials said Thursday they are proceeding with sending out absentee ballots Friday, while acknowledging the possibility the Board of Elections could take action related to those voters during its Friday meeting. "You're going to have to stay tuned to see what the vote of the Board is tomorrow," said NCSBE Executive Director Sam Hayes. "Again, I don't want to preempt them. I would say that the focus of tomorrow's meeting is going to be guidance to the counties on how to handle these absentee ballots as they come in." The guidance comes as election officials continue to monitor legal challenges surrounding absentee and mail-in voting. At the federal level, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that places restrictions on the U.S. Postal Service's handling of absentee ballots. A federal judge has temporarily blocked the order while the court considers whether to extend that pause.
