Candidates who have filed and are running unopposed will be on the ballot for the November 3 election along with the Weldon City Schools Board of Education, according to the Halifax County Board of Education.

Unopposed candidates who met last Friday’s filing deadline are incumbent Halifax County Sheriff Tyree Davis, incumbent District Attorney Kim Gourrier Scott, and incumbent First District Congressman Don Davis.

In the sheriff’s race, board of elections Director Kristin Scott said Roanoke Rapids businessman Tracy Story will not be on the March 3 ballot as he is petitioning to run as an unaffiliated candidate for the November 3 election. 

The three Republicans running for one of three at-large seats on the Halifax County Board of Commissioners will also appear on the November 3 ballot. They are incumbent Sammy Webb and challengers Chuck Hasty and John Whichard.

All the races for the March 3 election appear in the photo gallery.
