NC District 83 has a tremendous opportunity to elect Gail Young as House representative this November. She is running against incumbent Larry Pittman who’s paranoid ideas and right wing legislative proposals don’t reflect the views of the majority in our district. By contrast, Gail provides an honest, inclusive approach to representing all citizens.
Young the best choice for District 83
