Primaries and Power--Presidential Politics in North Carolina

Record #:
18258
Abstract:
In many ways, the hallmark of the 1975 North Carolina General Assembly was the battle for political control and few matters taken up in this session show that struggle more clearly than the election laws. The most significant 1975 actions illustrating this point are the decisions by the General Assembly to separate the presidential primary from the statewide primary and to change the rules by which candidates may run in the presidential primary.
