Candidates for judge mean voting RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina voters will get to use a rare method for choosing an elected official in the November election. Eight candidates have filed to run for a Court of Appeals seat vacated re- cently by Judge Jim Wynn. A special one-week filing period ends Tuesday after- noon. The winner will serve on the state’s interme- diate appeals court for the next eight years. Voters must use instant runoff voting when so many candidates run for a vacancy close to Election Day. The voters rank their top three candidates in or- der of preference. Second- place votes are counted if no one gets a majority of first-place votes. Candidates include Cressie Thigpen, whom Gov. Beverly Perdue chose to replace Wynn through December, and former Court of Appeals Judge Doug McCullough.
