The chairman of the Surry County Board of Elections was charged after Wilmington police said they found evidence he placed illegal narcotics in his granddaughters' ice cream. On Aug. 8, James Edwin Yokeley Jr. told an officer that his two juvenile granddaughters found two pills in ice cream purchased from Dairy Queen on Oleander Drive Investigators discovered video footage that showed Yokeley was responsible for placing the pills into the ice cream for both girls, police said. The pills tested positive for MDMA and cocaine, according to an arrest warrant. In June, Yokeley, a Republican, was selected by State Auditor Dave Boliek to serve as chairman of the Surry County Board of Elections.
Also worth pointing out this guy wasn't elected but appointed by the state auditor after Republicans passed a law allowing themselves to force Republican majorities onto local elections boards.
