Morehead City mayoral race heads to Raleigh for further review

CARTERET COUNTY, N.C. (WITN) - In a show of hands, the Carteret County Board of Elections has decided to send the Morehead City election protest to Raleigh for further review.

“It was a hard decision, but we were not placed on this board to make easy decisions,” Carteret County Board of Elections chair Jeanette Deese said.

The board voted 3-2 in favor of finding “substantial evidence” or potential voting irregularities during the board’s evidentiary hearing at the Carteret County Courthouse Monday morning.

Incumbent Mayor Jerry Jones filed the election protest hearing.
