Very interesting turn of events took place at the Senior Dems convention this weekend:

There was one ‘candidate’ at Saturday’s convention who is not running for an office that appears on Tuesday’s ballot but will be voted on by a much small electorate later this month.

Guilford County State Sen. Don Vaughan could be the next chairman of the North Carolina Democratic Party.

Vaughan, who served many years on the Greensboro City Council before being elected the state senate in 2008, said that he was “drawn out” of his 27th District as a result of last year’s redistricting and that he has the time to step into the role.
