North Carolina has removed former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows from its voter rolls amid an investigation into whether or not he committed voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election, the Asheville Citizen-Times reports Wednesday.

Meadows, who served under former President Donald Trump, was "administratively removed" from the poll book by the Macon County Board of Elections "after documentation indicated he lived in Virginia and last voted in the 2021 election there," North Carolina Board of Elections Spokesperson Patrick Gannon said, per the The New York Times.
