Wake County Board of Commissioners Candidate Profile: Jessica Holmes

Voting History

Holmes has only been registered to vote in Wake County for TWO years (Sept. 5, 2012).
Before that, Holmes was registered in Pender County.
Shes only voted in one primary; this past one.




Prior Wake County Residences

Holmes has lived at least three places since moving to Wake County in 2012:

5304 Underwood Arbor Pl., Cary (apartment)
1322 Renshaw Ct., Cary (Condominium)
301 Dove Cottage Ln., Cary (Townhouse)

Holmes purchased the Renshaw Court address on March 25, 2013.
She lived there until Jan. 17, 2014.
Both the Underwood and Renshaw addresses are in Commission District 4, represented
by Democrat Caroline Sullivan.


Holmes then moved to Dove Cottage, inside the 3
rd
District, on Jan. 17, 2014- just
one month before filing for office.

She jumped to this location less than a year after the last one. It begs the question: did she move just to
get into the right district? The records lend themselves to that interpretation. This is a stark contract
between her and her long time Cary resident opponent, Rich Gianni.

See below for a detailed look at Ms. Holmes house hopping.
