Charlotte Observer editorial re NC Democratic Party

Some factual errors in this editorial, but it is mostly on target.

The Charlotte Observer mistakenly says it was the N&O that broke the story about allegations about Parmley, the ED at the state Democratic Party. It was Daily Caller, Tucker Carlson's publication based in D. C.

Insolence, and worse, at Democratic Party
Harassment allegations are serious, need deeper look.

NCDP Executive Director Jay Parmley just resigned, denying having harassed anyone.

From Laura Leslie of WRAL on FaceBook, news that the Executive Director of the NC Democratic Party has resigned. She says that contrary to Parmley's defense, she spoke to "eyewitnesses" about the allegations.

Here is the story from WTVD news in Durham.

The News and Observer has a long story with news of yesterday's conventions' resolutions in Wake and Durham as well as the news of today about the NC Democratic Party's ED resigning.

WRAL report on alleged sexual harassment at NCDP

Report was broadcast at 6pm by WRAL TV. You can also see streamed on www.WRAL.com.

"Leaders of the North Carolina Democratic Party declined to answer questions Friday about reports that a junior staffer quit working for the party last fall after being sexually harassed by a senior party official.

Several party officials said

they were told the party settled with the young man and that he signed a non-disclosure agreement. No financial settlement appears on the party's finance reports.

The senior official allegedly behind the harassment is still working at the party's Raleigh headquarters..."

Apparently the story was broken by The Daily Caller earlier today:
