Under the Dome podcast: Boards, overrides and elections power plays
Start your week in #ncpol #ncga with our latest Under the Dome politics podcast. Dawn Vaughan here, your News & Observer Capitol bureau chief and podcast host.
For the week of Aug. 21, 2023, I talk with my colleagues Kyle Ingram and Korie Dean about the busy one-day voting session last week — from the veto overrides of bills about transgender youth and athletes to new bills.
Dean, who covers higher education and how it intersects with politics, takes a closer look at who gets appointed to the governing boards of the UNC System. And we go over the latest separation of powers bill, which is also about board appointments and who gets to make them.
Plus, what does all this mean for 2024 candidates? And the upcoming election? Ingram has been following the latest elections bill.
