"Home-schooling Parent Defeats North Carolina Schools Chief Critical of 'Radical Agendas' in Primary"

North Carolina's public schools superintendent, Catherine Truitt, lost the Republican primary to conservative activist Michele Morrow, who criticized Truitt for not being conservative enough and accused public schools of indoctrinating students with left-leaning views. Morrow will face Democrat Maurice "Mo" Green in the general election. Additionally, six-term Democratic Sen. Mike Woodard lost his primary to a self-proclaimed progressive, and other legislators also faced primary defeats.
