Scott Predicts Early Realignment of NC Legislature
Lt. Gov. Bob Scott predicts the North Carolina Senate and House will approve realignment within a week, while warning of opposition to the congressional redistricting plan. The plan shifts Rutherford County from the 10th to the 11th District, potentially forcing incumbents into a November contest. Public hearings are set for Monday as protests loom over congressional realignment.

No One Person or Group Responsible for Redistricting Delay
Raleigh RP reports Republican State Chairman James Gardner said no single person or group caused the delay in unveiling the congressional redistricting plan. James Holthouser, chairman of the drafting committee, cited internal disagreements. Rep. Charles R. Jonas denied blocking a plan that would place him with Basil Whitener. Jonas stated he opposed the plan and preferred the joint committee’s district. Gardner reasserted no veto by any individual or group, warning against intra party factionalism.
