Here’s what students need to know about voting in the primary election
The University is hosting an on-campus polling location for students living in residence halls at the Sonja Haynes Stone Center for Black Culture and History.
Super Tuesday is right around the corner, and Carolina is working to make it easier for all Tar Heels to be able to cast their ballots.
“There’s a lot of local, state and federal issues that matter to students, like how much money is going to be available for college loans. So, students have a vested interest in the primary,” said Aaron Bachenheimer, Carolina’s executive director of off-campus student life and community partnerships. “The students have the opportunity to have their voices heard in these elections.

The University will host an on-campus polling location at the Sonja Haynes Stone Center for Black Culture and History. Students living in the residence halls will be able to cast their votes at the Stone Center on March 3.
Students living off-campus should report to their designated polling location. Each voter’s assigned polling location is listed on their voter registration card and can also be found on the Orange County Board of Elections website.
