Three of the seven seats on the Johnston County Schools board of education in North Carolina were up for at-large general election on November 6, 2018. All three incumbents filed for re-election.[1]
On May 17, 2018, the North Carolina State Board of Elections notified the Johnston County Board of Elections that the primary ballot used in the board of education primary might have had an issue. The Johnston County Board of Elections decided that the primary should not have been held and therefore did not certify the primary results. The primary candidates were all placed on the general election ballot.[2]
