Summary

Livestreams aren’t legally required for county elections meetings — even when they’re advertised. After a Columbus County voting board meeting’s stream cut out, a complaint was filed, but the State Board of Elections dismissed it 4-1, saying no law mandates livestreams or venue size. Transparency is great, but it’s not enforceable — at least not yet. One frustrated citizen spent over an hour stuck in a virtual waiting room, never getting in.
