The Stokes County Board of Commissioners wants residents to vote on dividing the county into five electoral districts.

At present, the five members of the board are elected at large.

The board voted 3-2 Thursday to pose the question on the Nov. 7 general-election ballot.

Hey Steve: Since you are a former Stokes County Commissioner, what are your thoughts on this issue???
