Bailey Wins Democratic Senate Nomination in NC Primary
Josiata W. Bailey, Raleigh attorney, selected by Democrats to oppose Republican contenders in the North Carolina Senate race after leading Senator Simmons by a wide margin in the early returns. Es tep, and other candidates trailed as Bailey polled 189,390 to Simmons 121,465 with 1,514 of 1,799 precincts reporting. In the Republican primary, George E. Butler and George M. Pritchard led as Irvin Tucker and H. Grady Dorsett trailed, amid the state’s first wide GOP tally. Simmons may not run as an independent, despite speculation.
