FOIA Request to Moore County Election Department Regarding Information on Upcoming Election Candidates on February 5, 2025.
As part of our ongoing commitment to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Pinehurst Today have sent a formal request to the Moore County Election Department under the North Carolina Public Records Law, G.S. §132-1.
Our request specifically seeks an electronic format list of all candidates running in the upcoming election. The information requested includes the candidates' first, middle, and last names; the office they are running for; jurisdiction of the office; and party affiliation.
In addition to these details, we have also asked for all contact information for each candidate. This includes their address, phone number, and email address.
At Pinehurst Today, we believe in holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Access to public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. As a media organization involved in gathering and reporting news to the public, we have also requested a fee waiver as a media professional.
We await a response from the Moore County Election Department and will continue to keep our readers informed about developments regarding this request.
