WRAL News has obtained a copy of an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission complaint filed against the party by former Finance Director Ellen Stankiewicz, who was terminated by Chairman Randy Voller in May.

In documents sent to the party’s Council of Review and provided to WRAL News by a third-party source, Stankiewicz accuses Voller and his allies of harassing, bullying and physically intimidating her. Two witnesses also
signed the statement.

Her EEOC complaint was filed May 7. Eight days later, at 3:33 a.m. on May 15, a termination letter was emailed to her <http://www.wral.com/news/state/nccapitol/document/12542943/> from Voller’s Gmail account.

The termination letter, <http://www.wral.com/news/state/nccapitol/document/12542970/> however, is dated and notarized April 23, 2013 – three weeks prior to its delivery, and two weeks before Stankiewicz filed her complaint.  It was witnessed by Pittsboro notary Wendie Morris.

Harris said his records show Voller didn’t receive notice of the EEOC complaint until May 16, the day after Stankiewicz was fired.

However, two members of the party’s upper leadership say that’s not the case.

Stankiewicz sent a copy of the EEOC complaint to party officers the day it was filed, they say, and those officers held a meeting to discuss the matter.

They say Voller was informed about the complaint May 8th, and was warned to avoid interaction with Stankiewicz.
