PBA Makes Clean Sweep in Wake County Primary Races

On March 25^th, 2010, the Cary, Raleigh, and Wake County chapters conducted candidate interviews for the May 4^th primary.   Candidates seeking the PBA endorsement for several NC House seats and a District Count seat met with a screening committee to discuss issues of vital importance to the PBA and law enforcement.  Based on the screening committee’s recommendations and a vote of the three chapter boards the PBA chose to endorse the following candidates.  Kris Bailey-District Court Judge, Rep.Darren Jackson-District 39, Tom Murry-District 41, and Rep. Rosa Gill-District 33.  On May 4, 2009, Kris Bailey was the leading vote getter in his race and will continue to the general election against the 2^nd place finisher.    Rep. Darren Jackson, Rep. Rosa Gill and Tom Murry won their respective primary races and will continue to the general election.  Tom Murry and Rep. Darren Jackson displayed the PBA endorsement in their campaigns.  Rep. Jackson chose to use the PBA logo and a quote that was featured in various mailings that his campaign did to voters in his district.  He also used a PBA quote in a local newspaper ad.
