Privette sees liquor by the drink fight in legislature
Baptist preacher Coy Privette running in the North Carolina GOP governor runoff predicts liquor by the drink legislation will be proposed next year in the General Assembly but vows to oppose it. As Christian Action League president, he previously led the successful 1973 defeat of liquor by the drink with a statewide referendum. He expects a statewide local option vote if a bill emerges and notes strong campaign feedback across the state that he is the best Republican to defeat Democrat Jim Hunt. Privette announced Ted C. Conrad as Mecklenburg campaign appointee at a Charlotte news conference.
