A North Carolina bipartisan panel announced a congressional redistricting plan that avoids incumbents facing each other. The plan limits deviation from the ideal district size, with the Third District 6.75 percent below and the 11th 0.5 percent above the norm. Changes to the Eighth District affected Congressman Charles Jonas. Contiguity rules kept Pitt, Edgecombe, and Nash counties separate, while Wake and Durham counties resisted sharing a district.
