{{Adoption NCGenWeb}} Poll books, which list voters on a yearly basis, have been preserved for some [[North Carolina|North Carolina]] counties. Usually, they are not indexed. The Family History Library has a few of these county records. See also taxation records, which usually list the persons who were assessed a poll tax. Election records from 1878 to the 1930s for some counties are at the North Carolina State Archives and the Family History Library. These often mention the candidates for county offices such as constable and give the number of votes cast for each candidate. The names of persons who cast their votes are not given.
