AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Election Watch: More than 2 million North Carolinians have voted early, with voting ending Saturday ahead of Tuesday’s election. Roy Cooper and Michael Whatley are battling for a closely watched Senate seat; meanwhile, federal prosecutors have charged 18 people accused of illegally voting in the 2024 election. Consumer Protection: North Carolina is part of a $220 million settlement over GM’s sale of drivers’ data, and joined a lawsuit accusing Dollar General of deceptive pricing. Public Safety: A 69-year-old man was arrested after an explosion at an illegal Wilkes County distillery; agents seized moonshine, mash and a 200-gallon still. Technology and Growth: A judge backed a proposed 750-megawatt data center in North Carolina, despite local concerns about water, power and pollution. On the Field: No. 1 Miami visits UNC for a Halloween matchup, a major test for Bill Belichick’s Tar Heels.
