Raleigh AP Thad Eure backs legislation to lift the state Board of Elections from his department and create an independent agency. Bills by Rep. Ernest Messer and Sen. Herman Moore propose the change, which would place Elections Director Alex Brock under a Republican dominated board. Moore says job security for Brock is not a concern.
