On the North Carolina News Roundup…

With early voting plodding along, we'll check turnout numbers. Spoiler: they're not great.

We get a preview of South Carolina's Republican primary this Saturday.

We consider just how much some candidates are self-funding.

The North Carolina House speaker has received the full and total endorsement of the former president.

And we check-in with Durham Public Schools to find out the latest in their pay saga.

Meanwhile, a Civil Rights leader turned Supreme Court Justice, has his statue unveiled in Greensboro. We'll discuss the living legacy of Henry Frye.

AND, what's with that cool unicorn sticker in Wake County?

Join Due South co-host Jeff Tiberii and a panel of journalists for the Friday news roundup.
