Domecast No. 59: The Raleigh Apodaca Memorial Episode

Domecast, our weekly podcast on government and politics in North Carolina, is ready for the weekend of June 24-25. After months of sparring, Gov. Pat McCrory debated face-to-face with Democratic challenger Roy Cooper this week. We'll go over the highlights, and explain why Hillary Clinton's Raleigh visit had her sounding a little like Bernie Sanders. We'll also sum up the last-minute crush of bills as the legislature winds down: Curbs on wind power, a new tea drug and rules for body camera footage. Congresswoman Alma Adams and Senate Rules Chairman Tom Apodaca join as special guests this week. Adams explains the House Democrats' sit-in for gun control, and Apodaca reflects on his time in the Senate -- and legislation named for his bulldog -- as his retirement approaches. We wrap up, as always, with Headliners of the Week. Lynn Bonner of The News & Observer hosts, and Colin Campbell, Craig Jarvis, Will Doran, Jordan Schrader and Bryan Anderson of The N&O join the panel. Learn more about your ad choices.
