Harnett County adds election specialist and approves ballot‑on‑demand system
Summary
The board approved adding a new election specialist position and purchasing a ballot-on-demand system to modernize ballot production, reduce operating cost and improve voter service, according to the county recap.
The Harnett County Board of Commissioners approved two items brought by the Board of Elections on Dec. 15: the addition of a new election specialist position and the purchase of a ballot‑on‑demand system.
Desiree Patrick summarized the action: "A request from board of elections to add a new election specialist position. This was approved." She added the board also approved a request "to purchase a ballot on demand system to modernize ballot production, reduce operation cost, and improve service to voters." Both requests were reported as approved in the meeting recap.
The recap does not include details on the new position’s salary grade, the cost or vendor for the ballot‑on‑demand system, or the implementation timeline. Those items were not specified and will require follow-up with elections staff for procurement records and staffing plans.
