New Rules Will Allow Gerrymandered
Election Districts in North Carolina
North Carolina voters will go to the polls under a new set of rules in 2024. Late last year, the North Carolina Supreme Court ruled that North Carolina’s constitution gave state courts no role to play in overseeing gerrymanders. That ruling and other new electoral decisions have significantly altered the state's election landscape.
At Leadership Asheville Forum's January 24th luncheon, Western Carolina University Political Science Professor Dr. Chris Cooper will analyze how these changes are likely to affect the political balance of power in the Tarheel state.
Dr. Chris Cooper is the Madison Distinguished Professor and Director of Political Science and Public Affairs at WCU. He is frequently quoted on political matters in local and national publications.
We hope you can join us.
