On this week’s episode of Tying it Together, host Tim Boyum talks with Karen Brinson Bell, the recently removed executive director of the North Carolina Board of Elections.
A new law enabled Republicans last week to select a new board, which then appointed a former Republican attorney general candidate and general counsel to the Republican House speaker to lead the board.
Brinson Bell discusses that decision, the board denying her the chance to give last remarks, leading state elections through a pandemic and natural disaster, the future of elections and her own future.
