Domecast No. 70: Early voting and candidates for labor commissioner

Domecast, The News & Observer's weekly podcast on government and politics in North Carolina, is ready for the weekend of Sept. 10-11. This week we interview the two candidates running for state labor commissioner: Democrat Charles Meeker and Republican Cherie Berry. They talk about their accomplishments - Berry as commissioner and Meeker as mayor of Raleigh - and North Carolina's record on worker safety. On our reporter panel, we discuss the decisions that were made this week on how much time should be provided for early voting, including the fate of Sunday voting hours across the state. And we learn why a windy day at the beach could be a good thing. We wrap up, as always, with Headliners of the Week. Jordan Schrader of The News & Observer hosts, and Colin Campbell and Will Doran round out the panel. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
