According to state election guidelines, says Pamlico County’s Elections Supervisor, Lisa Bennett, not every write in vote will show up on the final official canvass of this election. “We are only required to list the names of write-ins that received 5 or more votes.” Bennett says, “All other write ins will be reported as miscellaneous.”
