Editorial: Moving muni elections here not necessary in this cycle

Comments from the leaders of the General Assembly at the close of last week indicate the Bladen County Board of Elections, and others across the state, will not be forced by lawmakers to move this fall’s municipal elections. That’s good news. Nearly 90 percent of the state’s precincts don’t need the census data back in order to conduct this election cycle. Pleas by Karen Brinson Bell, the executive director of the state Board of Elections, and others that focus on “confusion” are only sowing the seeds by suggesting the unnecessary move. In Bladen County, there are likely to be between 5,000 and 6,000 registered voters who can cast a vote in Elizabethtown, Bladenboro, White Lake, Clarkton, East Arcadia, Dublin or Tar Heel elections. In the 2019 municipal elections, turnout was 2,086 of the 5,651 registered 36.9 percent, which was a healthy jump from the 22.8 percent (1,295 of 5,668) two years before that and the 23.5 percent (1,310 of 5,563) in 2015.

(WECT) - She overpaid her property taxes by more than $7,000, due to a mistake made by the Bladen County Tax Department. But Regina Whitted says the county is refusing to give her a full refund, even though they admit the error was theirs. Whitted has been engaged in a lawsuit against Bladen County since 2018. She owns 40 acres of property on the Bladen/Cumberland County line. The majority of the property is in Bladen County, but 11.45 acres is in Cumberland. According to the lawsuit, Whitted, who lives in Maryland, has been charged property taxes by both counties since purchasing the property in 1993.
