Alleghany Board of Elections

The principal function of the elections office is to conduct fair, impartial and efficient elections in compliance with state law. We work under the supervision of the Board members. We strive to make the voting process as easy and enjoyable as possible within the limits of the law by educating ourselves and the precinct officials with up to date information from the state.
