Voting bill passes

The House passed (at a little after 8 p.m.) Senate Bill 223, which will require all North Carolina voting machines to have a paper record for each vote.

The Senate has passed the same bill. However, the House made a few technical changes, so the Senate must vote again on whether to concur. That will likely come tomorrow or Saturday.

This bill came about after voting machines in Carteret County lost a bunch of votes during last year's election. Find links to prior coverage here.
