A member of the NC Coalition for Verified Voting says a request from the Wake County Elections Director to certify her own machines puts unnecessary risk on the county and its taxpayers.
Wake County’s huge population growth during the last decade posed a challenge for the law firm in charge of drawing a new districts map. The number of residents in the county flew from 627,846 in the year 2000 to 900,993 in 2010 — an increase of 43.5 percent. The U.S. Constitution requires redistricting every 10 years after the census. Districts within each governing body should be more or less equal with a 5-percent deviation up or down.
