  • Ch 5 NC Legislature.Indd
    The State Legislature The General Assembly is the oldest governmental body in North Carolina. According to tradition, a “legislative assembly of free holders” met for the first time around 1666. No documentary proof, however, exists proving that this assembly actually met. Provisions for a representative assembly in Proprietary North Carolina can be traced to the Concessions and Agreements, adopted in 1665, which called for an unicameral body composed of the governor, his council and twelve delegates selected annually to sit as a legislature. This system of representation prevailed until 1670, when Albemarle County was divided into three precincts. Berkeley Precinct, Carteret Precinct and Shaftsbury Precinct were apparently each allowed five representatives. Around 1682, four new precincts were created from the original three as the colony’s population grew and the frontier moved westward. The new precincts were usually allotted two representatives, although some were granted more. Beginning with the Assembly of 1723, several of the larger, more important towns were allowed to elect their own representatives. Edenton was the first town granted this privilege, followed by Bath, New Bern, Wilmington, Brunswick, Halifax, Campbellton (Fayetteville), Salisbury, Hillsborough and Tarborough. Around 1735 Albemarle and Bath Counties were dissolved and the precincts became counties. The unicameral legislature continued until around 1697, when a bicameral form was adopted. The governor or chief executive at the time, and his council constituted the upper house. The lower house, the House of Burgesses, was composed of representatives elected from the colony’s various precincts. The lower house could adopt its own rules of procedure and elect its own speaker and other officers.

  • The Racial Justice Act and the Long Struggle with Race and the Death Penalty in North Carolina*
    MOSTELLER&KOTCH.PTD2 9/18/10 12:07 PM THE RACIAL JUSTICE ACT AND THE LONG STRUGGLE WITH RACE AND THE DEATH PENALTY IN NORTH CAROLINA* SETH KOTCH & ROBERT P. MOSTELLER** In August 2009, the North Carolina General Assembly enacted the Racial Justice Act (“RJA”), which commands that no person shall be executed “pursuant to any judgment that was sought or obtained on the basis of race.” One of the most significant features of the RJA is its use of statistical evidence to determine whether the race of defendants or victims played a significant role in death penalty decisions by prosecutors and jurors and in the prosecutor’s exercise of peremptory challenges. The RJA commits North Carolina courts to ensuring that race does not significantly affect death sentences. This Article examines the RJA and North Carolina’s long struggle with race and the death penalty. The first part traces the history of race and the death penalty in the state, showing that racial prejudice exerted a consistent, strong, and pernicious influence on the imposition and disposition of death sentences. From colonial times into the 1960s, the overwhelming majority of those executed were African American, and although most victims and perpetrators of crime are of the same race, the overwhelming majority of victims in cases where executions took place were white. Hundreds of African Americans have been executed for a variety of crimes against white victims, including scores of African American men executed for rape. However, just four whites have been executed for crimes against African American victims, all murders. * © 2010 Seth Kotch & Robert P.

  • From the Center Out
    From the Center Out Retirements and Republicans’ Redistricting Bring High Legislative Turnover for 2013 by Ran Coble “If you have lower than a ten percent turnover, there is a problem. And if you have higher than, say 20 percent, there is a problem.” — Former U.S. President Richard M. Nixon, 1969–74 ven before the November elections in 2012, 34 percent of the state’s leg- islators who began the 2011–12 session will not return to their seats in 2013. Of the 170 legislators in the 2011–12 N.C. General Assembly, 57 Emembers — including 29 Republicans and 28 Democrats — will not return next year. In addition, four more legislators will not return to the same chamber, as four House members won election to the Senate. In the 2011–12 legislature, there were 46 freshman legislators (27 percent). Sixty- one more legislators are not returning at all or to the same chamber in 2013. In the 2013–14 General Assembly, 102 legislators (60 percent) will not have been there just three years ago. A combined 652 years of institutional memory and policy expertise will be lost with this much turnover. On the other hand, there will be room for lots of new ideas. Potential for Record-Setting Turnover The modern records for highest legislative turnover were set in 1973 and 1975, when 65 and 70 new legislators, respectively, came to the General Assembly. After the general elections on November 6, 2012, North Carolina’s legislative turnover in 2013 approached but did not surpass the record turnover of the mid-1970s.
