Changing of the election guard

    Brenden Jones of Tabor City was surrounded by family as he took his oath as a member of the Columbus County Board of Elections on Tuesday.
    With a Republican in the governor’s mansion for the first time in 20 years, Jones became the first GOP chairman of the local board in that same time frame after taking his oath.
