2021 municipal elections will likely be delayed in North Carolina.
Census data isn’t ready yet, meaning new districts can’t be drawn.
“We won’t stop our campaign over here. We want to keep going strong,” says Charlotte City Council at-large candidate Curtis Hayes Jr.
It’s been a month since Hayes announced his bid.
Hayes plans to keep his campaign going, even though there may no longer be an election this year.
“We will continue to fight this journey all the way until they open it up,” he says.
That might not be until 2022.
By law, each district must have an even number of voters.
