RALEIGH, N.C. — North Carolina's election chief says he wouldn't be surprised to see Barack Obama's slim lead in the state increase as counties count thousands of provisional ballots.

State Board of Elections director Gary Bartlett estimated Wednesday there are about 40,000 provisional ballots, cast by voters whose eligibility to vote must be confirmed. Those will be counted over the coming days and possibly weeks.

Rockingham County finished Election Day counting on Wednesday after a glitch failed to report results at five one-stop polling sites.

Unofficial election results show President-elect Barack Obama with 13,746 more votes than Republican rival John McCain. Obama won the race for the White House without North Carolina's 15 electoral votes.
