2006 Endorsements

Who we elect matters! North Carolinians care about improving air and water quality, preserving forests and farmlands, and enforcing environmental laws. We need to elect candidates for the NC Legislature who share these same values, and who will make the health of our communities and the beauty of our state a top priority.

The Conservation PAC members and Conservation Council staff carefully evaluate every candidate for office based on a variety of criteria, including a candidate's responses to our written questionnaire, interviews, their environmental voting record and demonstrated leadership on environmental issues, and their commitment to improving environmental protection in North Carolina.

Below are C-PAC's endorsements for the 2006 General Election on November 7 (arrranged by District).
