Delegate Selection: Proportional Primary, Polling hours 6:30a EDT (1030 UTC) to 7:30p EDT (2330 UTC) / 8:30p EDT (0030 UTC). NORTH CAROLINA allows its County Boards of Elections to decide whether to keep polls open until 8:30 p.m. EDT but, outside of metropolitan areas, this local option is not often utilized and so 7:30 p.m. EDT is the networks' earliest time of projection beacuse the vast majority of that state's polls will have closed by that hour. Voter Eligibility: Modified Primary 55 total delegates - 10 base at-large / 39 re: 13 congressional districts / 3 party / 3 bonus |
