Chapel of the Cross on East Franklin Street (next to Morehead Planetarium) is serving as the early-voting site nearest campus. On Thursday at 4 pm, a coalition of UNC students, administrators and community members will host an event at Chapel of the Cross to help kick off the early voting period and get out the vote, especially among UNC students. Everyone’s invited, so come out and join in the event – and if you’re an Orange County resident, it’s also the perfect time to fill out your ballot as well.
Dianne Heath from UNC student government joined Aaron Keck on WCHL Wednesday to discuss the event.
