Second primary to determine two Republican party races set for May 14th

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WWAY) — A second voting primary will be held throughout the state of North Carolina on May 14th to determine which Republican candidates will advance to the November general election in the races for Lieutenant Governor and State Auditor.
To help decide which candidate moves forward to the 2024 general election, registered Republican voters, registered Unaffiliated voters who chose to participate in the Republican primary during the March 5th statewide primary election, or those registered Unaffiliated voters who chose not to vote in the statewide primary may take part.
Those who are registered with the Democratic, Green, Libertarian, or No Labels parties are not eligible to participate, nor are Unaffiliated voters who chose to participate in the Democratic primary during the March 5th statewide primary.
Early voting will take place in the Paynter Room at the Northeast Public Library Branch (1241 Military Cutoff Rd). Eligible voters can stop by Monday-Friday from April 25th through May 11th from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. to cast their ballots. Early voting will also be available in the Paynter Room on May 11th from 8:00 a.m. through 3:00 p.m.
Same-day registration will not be permitted during the second primary. Absentee-by-mail ballots are also available for eligible voters who request them by 5:00 p.m. on May 7th. These ballots must be returned to the Board of Elections office by 7:30 p.m. on May 14th.
