At end of your ballot, please vote YES ✅ for all three bonds: $146.2 million for streets, $50 million for housing and $29.8 million for neighborhoods.
The Final Stretch: Election Day is Five Days Away 🗳️✅
After months of campaigning, the main event is just a few days away. The last day of early voting is Saturday, Nov. 5 at 3 p.m. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 8, with polls open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. For more information on the election including your sample ballot, visit Mecklenburg County Board of Elections.

We encourage all to vote YES for city bonds and spread the word to those who are voting this election season. You can visit our website's resources page for campaign materials.

Please continue to campaign for the cause and thank you for your support!
Know Your Ballot Before You Go 🗳️
Before you vote, become familiar with your ballot. The city bonds referenda are at the very end of the ballot and are lengthy. The language can be overwhelming and even misleading. Here's why: The ballot language is set by the state statutes and includes the reference "taxes may be levied." But, it's important to note, the city anticipated issuing these bonds and included the debt financing cost to cover them when it set the budget and tax rate. NO property tax increase will be required to pay for these bonds.

To view your sample ballot by address, visit Mecklenburg Board of Elections.

To view your sample ballot by name, visit North Carolina State Board of Elections.
Volunteers Needed
On Election Day, we're deploying teams of vote YES supporters across the city to raise awareness about the city bonds on the ballot. We're asking committee members and supporters to volunteer on Tuesday, Nov. 8, at various predetermined poll locations to hand out collateral to voters and remind them to #VoteYesForBonds.
