State drops ban on political gatherings at Historic Sites
A state agency has dropped its ban on political gatherings at state-owned historic sites, clearing the way for an Edenton anti-tax group to hold a rally on the green near the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse this fall.
Campaign restrictions for the March 29 local elections went into effect on Wednesday, banning opening and ground-breaking ceremonies and the use of official cars and other vehicles for campaign purposes.
