Wake Democrat Terence Everitt resigns from the NC Senate

Terence Everitt (D-Wake) resigned from the state Senate, he announced Tuesday on Facebook.

Everitt has been leading an organization called the North Carolina Voter Protection Alliance since January. He said on Facebook he wanted to devote his attention to that work.

“Since returning to the legislative session, it has become clear that defending democracy requires my focus and dedication,” he wrote.

Everitt was running for a second Senate term in the competitive district that includes northern Wake and Granville County. He said he will withdraw from the race. Democratic leaders in Wake and Granville must nominate someone to fill Everitt’s seat and find someone to replace him on the November ballot.
