I've been trying to find out whether the general election required a clear-cut majority or a simple plurality (like the primary). I'm not doubting you, but do you know this for an actual fact?

This matter will be cleared up at the
Board of Elections tommorrow.

One-third of the vote should be better
said as 1/3 plus one vote in the event of
a perfect 3-way split.

The fact that one-stop voting, i.e., early
voting at selected locations has commenced
Friday past, would indicate Monks is in
for good. Should he drop out, what would
happen to those votes already cast for him?
Written off or invalidated?

Many Durhamites would not trust any
appointment by Easley. The AA influence
in Raleigh is underestimated. Nifong is
only their tool anyways.
