HICKORY — Exodus Homes, a faith-based United Way agency, and the League of Women Voters of Catawba Valley will host an educational outreach, "It Is Your Right to Vote" seminar
The two newest members of North Carolina’s Supreme Court took the lead challenging plaintiffs in a case Thursday dealing with felon voting rights. Questions from new Justices Trey Allen and Richard Dietz signaled their concerns about a lower court ruling that allowed thousands of felons to vote last November. The state’s highest court will decide in the months ahead whether felons who have completed active prison sentences will be allowed to vote in future elections.
