North Carolina Legislature Passes Bill for New State House Districts

On August 30, the North Carolina legislature passed HB 927, which has new districts for State House seats.  When the House convenes at 2 p.m. today, it is expected to pass SB 691, the bill for new State Senate districts.

Then the legislature will probably take a recess, and reconvene in October.  According to Representative Bert Jones, SB 656 will be taken up at that time.  That is the bill that greatly improves ballot access.  It has already passed both houses, but the versions in each house differ, so more action is needed.
