[EL] North Caroline judicial candidates -- party labels

[JBoppjr at aol.com]

Is this a statement from the BNA article or is a comment by Prof  Hasen?
 
As I understand it, the impetus for this  bill was the election of a 
Democratic state Supreme Court Justice with a “white”  sounding name and no party 
label.

_Bloomberg  BNA:_ 
(http://news.bna.com/mpdm/MPDMWB/split_display.adp?fedfid=107884942&vname=mpebulallissues&jd=a0m1b5h4x8&split=0)  
Starting next year,  ballots listing candidates for North Carolina’s 
superior and district courts  will once again include their party affiliations. 
Both the state House and  Senate garnered enough votes to override Gov. Roy 
Cooper’s (D) March 16 veto  of _H.B. 100_ (http://src.bna.com/m3W) . Both 
votes were largely along party lines, with  Republicans generally supporting 
the override and Democrats voting against  it. 
As I understand it, the  impetus for this bill was the election of a 
Democratic state Supreme Court  Justice with a “white” sounding name and no party 
label.
