Triangle Area Voter Guide 2006, Part 3: Durham County Races
Monday, 2006 November 6 - 1:01 pm
Tomorrow is election day! Here are my endorsements for Durham County local elections.

My endorsements are in boldface. See Part 1 for statewide and U.S. Congressional Races.

N.C. Senate


N.C. Senate District 18
(D) Bob Atwater

N.C. Senate District 20
(D) Jeanne H. Lucas

N.C House


N.C. House District 29
(D) Larry D. Hall

N.C. House District 30
(D) Paul Luebke

N.C. House District 31
(D) H.M. "Mickey" Michaux

N.C. House District 55
(D) W.A. "Winkie" Wilkins

Durham County Courts


District Court Judge District 14
Nancy E. Gordon
Anita L. Smith
Gordon is a University of Michigan graduate, ahem. She seems to have a balanced perspective on the law.

District Court Judge District 14
Tracy Hicks Barley
Ann McKown
McKown was a Hunt appointment and has done good things so far.

District Court Judge District 14
Craig B. Brown

District Court Judge District 14
Elaine M. Bushfan
Yes, even though her name is "Bush fan".

District Court Judge District 14
James T. (Jim) Hill

District Court Judge District 14
Marcia Morey

District Attorney District 14
(D) Lewis Cheek
(R) Steve Monks
(D) Michael B. Nifong
Nifong is controversial, to say the least, because of his role in the Duke lacrosse rape case, but I think he's done his job and navigated the controversy as correctly as he could. Here's a take on it from Amanda Smith, found via Phil: "He Believed Her".

Other Durham County Elections


Durham County Clerk of Court
(D) Archie Smith

Durham County Sheriff
(D) Worth Hill

Durham County Soil and Water Supervisor
Raymond Lee Eurquhart
Robert Rosenthal
No one else is on the ballot.
