North Carolina Democrats abandon quota plan for delegates
The North Carolina Democratic party executive committee voted to drop the 1972 delegate selection quota plan, adopting an affirmative action plan with no quotas for women, blacks or youth. The action, approved 112 to 46 after limiting debate, requires submission to national headquarters for approval and targets participation through unspecified “special efforts” and publicity of meetings starting the delegate process. Dr. E Lavonia Allison criticized the plan as vague and lacking a publicity strategy, saying it undermined broad participation.
